Wetsuit use in winter

In winter, water temperatures outside can drop significantly. Still, you want to practice your favorite water sport even in cold temperatures. After all, it would be a shame to leave your SUP board in the shed for more than 6 months.

Fortunately, there is a very simple solution to get out on the water even in winter, which is a wetsuit for cold temperatures. This is a wetsuit of considerable thickness, which ensures that your body temperature is maintained. In the cold water, you could otherwise quickly become hypothermic and/or cramp up, which can be very dangerous.

What type of wetsuit is suitable for winter?

A typical winter wetsuit is often 5 to 6 mm thick. They can therefore be used from mid-March through the end of November. Do you still want to go on the water in the winter? Then with the help of some extras under your wetsuit this is no problem at all.

Winter wetsuits are sometimes called "steamer wetsuits. These are wetsuits with a thickness of 6/3mm or 5/3 mm. This means that the thickness at the torso is 6 or 5 mm and at the arms and legs 3 mm. As a result, you still experience a lot of freedom of movement and performance does not suffer.

Fit

A well-fitting wetsuit is essential in winter. After all, should the wetsuit not fit completely? Then a lot of water will still get through and the function of the wetsuit will be lost.

In addition, a wetsuit should feel comfortable so that performance does not suffer. Does your suit not quite fit? Then you may already enter the water feeling less comfortable, which doesn't make it any more fun. So always make sure you have a tight fitting wetsuit.

Size

Important when choosing a suitable winter wetsuit is size. If your suit is too short or too long, performance may suffer. Also, if your wetsuit is too narrow, you may experience less freedom of movement. So always make sure that you choose the right size and that the suit fits well.
