Struggling with Your wetsuit?

If you have ever tried putting on a wetsuit you might remember how difficult this can be when you are trying to get the wetsuit on and fitting correctly, and then of course  trying to reach the zip, and zipping it up proves to be a mission in itself. Well specifically one for the girls is the O’neill mod wetsuits which proves to be one of the better girls wetsuits.

One of the main issues when looking at girls wetsuits, is the fact that the female body varies in proportions, more so than the male body across different individuals. Therefore the O’neill modular wetsuit designers took this into account in addressing the differing needs of the girls wetsuits market. Many times the girls wetsuits would contain ill fitting areas that allow water in and defeat the object of the wetsuit, which is essentially to keep the wearer warmer than when not wearing a wetsuit. With baggy areas on a wetsuit the chance of developing a wetsuit rash also becomes apparent and nobody really wants this sort of discomfort.

The modular girls wetsuits are developed and designed in such a way that the wearer is allowed more movement as well as flexibility when surfing or swimming and enjoying a wetsuit that is completely sealed. The girls wetsuits are sealed by a triple gluing process as well as blind stitching of the seams. Although one might question the point of stitching a seam, as this might allow water in; that is why they utilize the blind stitching technique. This technique allows the stitching into the backing of the neoprene materials, and not all the way through, which is accomplished by utilizing a curved needle in the stitching process. One of the major benefits of this, besides not allowing the water to come through is that it allows the seams to lay more flat against the wearers skin.

The manufacturers of the modular system, O’neill, have actually applied for a patent for their sealing system, which includes the various plasma seals around the neck, shoulders, ankles and wrists. This is also a key point in the fitting of the suit as the internal plasma seals will mould around the unique shape of the wearers specific areas, like the wrists and ankles. Whereas in the past a purchaser may have had slightly thinner wrists and ankles and would have to purchase a slightly smaller size to ensure that the wrist and ankle areas were sealed, this would naturally result in the wetsuit being too constrictive and not allowing for flexible movement.

These girls wetsuits designed according to an ergonomic factor as determined by the manufacturers are set to take the female market by storm and display the ongoing development and evolution of the wetsuit. Only a few of the plus factors were mentioned here and there are many more benefits to the modular wetsuits as well as the male wetsuit counterpart, which is aptly known as the mutant range from O’neill. One is encouraged to investigate this wetsuit as well as all the benefits that apply to this cutting edge technology and design.
