Rip Curl Flash Bomb 5x4 Chest Zip Hooded Wetsuit 2012
SKU WSMOEF
Colour: Black / Black / Black 4976 (Please not this is not the suit picture, it is all black)
Dry in 15 minutes
Flash Dry is an exclusive new weave technology with 2 engineered layers – the first layer is designed so the water passes through it directly into the 2nd layer. The 2nd layer then funnels the water rapidly out of the suit once it is hung up. Dry Fast – Surf More! And, of course, as well as the rapid dry time the FlashDry lining is also one of the warmest, most comfortable linings available.
Rip Curl Hoods
Rip Curl have spent a lot of time this year thinking about how to make their hooded suits the very best, and here are some of the new features added:
E3+ Action panels - Reduces hood "snap back" and allow you to turn your head as esily as possible.
Engineered Chin Cup - Uses a 3D "pre shaped" pattern and E3+ panel to be as comfortable and easy on your jaw as possible.
Cord lock down - Stops the pull cord flicking into your face.
Improved Peripheral Vision - We've pulled back the opening from around your eyes to stop that annoying blockage of peripheral vision.
Key Features:
Flash Dry Lining
Stitchless Technology – Having no stitching has 2 major benefits: 1. It allows the seam to stretch further and 2. it eliminates pin hole leaking – which means that a suit using Stitchless technology is both stretchier and warmer.
E3 Tape plus Aquaban Combo – Double taped to create the ultimate waterproof seal. New E3+ super stretch tape on the internal seams allows unrestricted stretch and is the most comfortable seam around. Aquaban Liquid tape on the external seams for maximum seam sealing and durability.
Aqualock Waterproof Zip – We have stepped up the zip technology on the Flash-Bomb suits with the addition of a new waterproof zip system to keep out the cold water.
Also includes:
100% Elastomax Neoprene
Superstretch Neoprene, Lighter, Warmer, more Flexible
Drainage System
3 hole drainage system allows excess water to drain freely
Chest Zip
Front closure system, provides freedom and easy access
4-way Stretch Panels
Seamless Underarms & Shoulders
Mesh Skin
Hydro-Lock Collar
S-Flex Knees
Highly flexible and durable knee pads
For the Flash-Bomb's final test, we sent team riders Matt Wilkinson, Taylor Knox, Dean Brady, and Dillon Perillo to the icy waters of Canada.
Despite the frigid conditions, the Flash-Bomb proved its claim as an essential weapon for any surfer fed up with putting on a cold, wet wetsuit
