Stoked!


I know that it is a little early to start talking about 4/3 wetsuits but we just got our spring shipment in from RipCurl so maybe a light flexible 4/3 session isn't as far away as it seems. The RipCurl Insulator is the best suit that RipCurl has come up with in a while. Both Steve and myself are wearing 4/3 Insulators and we are beyond stoked with everything about them. The are super super easy to get on and off, they are really warm, and they have awesome flexibility exactly where you need it.

So here is the run down on what makes this suit great. First of it comes with a detachable hood that gives the suit tons of versatility. No more hooded vest, the built in hood is great when it's cold and zips off completely when the water temps warms up. This suit is warmer then most 4/3s because they carry the 4mm rubber all the way down through the legs. The only 3mm rubber is in the arms where you need the flexibility more than you need the warmth. The suit is also fully liquid sealed everywhere, which increases it warmth, except in the arms. In the arms the suit is blind stitched and glued which gives the arms even more flexibility. To put it into perspective it keeps you toasty warm like a 4 mm suit should, but paddles like you are only wearing a 3/2. Finally the suit is a chest zip which is great for warmth and comfort and with RipCurls new pleated design there has never been an easier chest zip to get in and out of. This suit is great, Steve and I both back it. If you need a new 4/3, look no further, the Insulator is it!!!

So if you enjoy the surf lifestyle and you like good music then get stoked for the Surf The Winter Party at The Stone Church in Newmarket, NH this Friday night! The entertainment includes one of my personal favorites Todo Bien along with Q-Will and The Cody James. I am not exactly sure what is going to happen but I heard rumors of sand on the floor and the heat cranked all the way UP! I could be totally wrong here but that's what I heard. The show is 21+ and the doors swing wide open at 7 pm. Get Some!
