We are often asked at which temperatures and weather conditions it is best to use which wetsuit with which neoprene strength.

In addition to the hygiene factor, regular care also has an effect on the durability of the neoprene. If you simply hang your wetsuit after a session on the water to dry in the sun and the salt water and dirt does not rinse thoroughly, the neoprene can quickly become brittle and cracked. Generally we advise against hanging the neo directly in the sun.
A little hint when putting on: Make sure that your body is dry, then it can be much easier to put on. Neoprene sticks to wet skin.
When you have finished your session, you should wash the Neo directly with clean water. Then turn it to the left and let it dry in a shady and airy place. When the neo is dry you can turn it over and hang it on a sturdy frame.
Attention: You must not use the spin cycle!
An alternative to the washing machine is the bathtub. Just take a small bath with 30 ° C water temperature and add some detergent, shower gel or Spüli and let soak the wetsuit. Then rinse thoroughly again.
