If you are planning to get into wakeboarding and trying to get yourself a wetsuit for the sport, you might be facing the dilemma of what brand to get, or what is best for wakeboarding.

A wakeboarding wetsuit should be something that has greater flexibility as the sport requires flexibility especially in parts like the knees and arms. And, of course, it should keep you protected from the cold.

In the wakeboarding industry, Jet Pilot wetsuits are considered as one of the highest rated suits and are excellent for wakeboarding use. Their devotion to water sports especially wakeboarding and surfing led them to create more wetsuit innovations while maintaining high-quality products.

Jet Pilot is known to design wetsuits that fit the demands of wakeboarding or surfing. For being in the industry for years, they have come up with innovations as to the flexibility of wetsuits based on what active sportsmen need in terms of flexibility and comfort. Jet Pilot has a line of wakeboarding wetsuits from those with 60 percent super stretch Neoprene up to 100 percent pure super stretch Neoprene for more flexibility. They also secured the seams and zipper and even have a Neoprene barrier to prevent leakage in the areas around the zippers.

Jet pilot also has wide choices of wetsuits for women and the youth, including a wide choice of flight jackets.

Another brand, Rip Curl also makes wetsuits for wakeboarding, which can also be worn for surfing. Rip Curl wetsuits are among the lightest and most flexible wakeboarding wetsuits.

Rip Curl has developed their wetsuits with the SlickSkin technology to prevent wind chills. They also added kneepads to their suits to make it more flexible. It also introduced the 'Batwing system' in its wetsuits that is designed to protect critical parts of the body from the cold.

Quicksilver is another brand that offers wakeboarding wetsuits. They are also among the bestselling brands in the market. Their Quicksilver Synchro model was made very flexible that it is easy for the user to get into and out of the suit. Their wetsuits also have Spanflex shoulders and arms as these are the parts that need greater flexibility. These allow more comfort, durability and maximum flexibility for the user.

You can never indeed go wrong if you choose to have wetsuits made by these industry leaders. You can also rely that these brands have undergone innovations to perfectly fit the demands of wakeboarding.

Wetsuits are designed primarily to preserve your body heat and protect you from the cold, and if you are a water sports enthusiast, you may want to know what wetsuits are made of to guide you in choosing what is suitable for you. If you are looking for a surfing wetsuit or a swimming wetsuit, you might want to know what materials are suited for you.

Wetsuits are usually made from pure Neoprene or a combination of Neoprene and butyl rubber. Neoprene is a waterproof, stretchable synthetic rubber invented back in the 1930s. With the evolving need for a more flexible and stronger wetsuit, other materials may also be used in different types of wetsuits like lycra, spandex or Merino wool.

The surface of the suit can be smooth, waterproofed rubber or skin, coated or laminated with nylon or polyester. The main material, Neoprene is designed to fit around the body to prevent cold water to penetrate, and different thickness of wetsuits are available depending how warm or the cold is the water.

Neoprene in wetsuits is usually classified depending on the quality. It can be the standard neoprene, super stretch neoprene or the super stretch water repellant neoprene. Wetsuits that have super stretch Neoprene are usually priced differently according to the percentage of that type of neoprene on it. If you are looking for a wetsuit for a specific water sport, it is good to check what wetsuits are made of before buying.

Wetsuits with 30% super stretch neoprene are usually less expensive. Super stretch neoprene is usually found in parts of the suit that require more flexibility like the shoulders, arms and the back. Thirty percent super stretch Neoprene is the usual requirement for surfing wetsuits but other more experienced and professional surfers prefer to have up to 100% super stretch Neoprene. It can be used for wakeboarding, recreational swimming and general water sports.

Some wetsuits have 60% super stretch neoprene. These are usually placed in important parts of the suit like the back, shoulders, arms and thighs. Wetsuits with 60% super stretch neoprene makes use of standard neoprene in other parts of the suit.

Wetsuits having 100 percent or pure super stretch neoprene are the most flexible types. They are also considered the lightest. With these characteristics, they are also a little expensive.

Wetsuits are usually zipped at the back or at the shoulders or chest. These allow the wearer ease of putting on or taking off the suit. Other more advanced wetsuits however are made very flexible that it does not require zippers.

So whether you are looking for surfing wetsuit, a swimming wetsuit, or a triathlon wetsuit, that would probably be just easy now that you know what wetsuits are made of.
