If you are considering taking part in water sports activities that involve being in extremely cold water you will need to buy a good quality winter wetsuit or drysuit. Developments within wet suit innovation have assisted water sports consumers to maintain warmth in freezing water for prolonged periods.
The O’Neill Psychofreak since its release has set the standard for ultimate warmth within a wetsuit. When the Psychofreak first arrived we tested it out in the 2.5mm version in the summer months and it was simply baking hot!
So in answer to the question how does a wetsuit keep you warm, we should start with the basics of how a wetsuit works. Wetsuits keep you warm by catching a thin layer of water between your skin and the neoprene.
O'Neill Wetsuits have kindly given the O'Neill Psycho 3 Wetsuits pre-release. Jeff from the Wetsuit Centre runs through this exciting new addition to the O'Neill Wetsuit range and gives us an insight to the new Techno Butter technology that is exclusive to O'Neill.
If your not sure about which Drysuit to purchase then why not take advantage of Jeff's latest video running through the features of the Typhoon Hypercurve Drysuit.
When looking for a Wetsuit you should consider what time of year you are wanting to use it. For example if your looking at using it in the months of November to April in UK waters then the temperature will range from 15c down as low as 5c.
