ION Base 3/2 mm Overknee Back Zip Shorty Wetsuit
Discover the ultimate solution for high-use aquatic environments with the ION Base 3/2 mm Overknee Back Zip Shorty. Engineered specifically for the demanding conditions of surf schools, rental centers, and frequent training sessions, this wetsuit is the benchmark for durability and reliable performance. It provides the perfect combination of warmth, flexibility, and rugged construction, ensuring every user has a comfortable and protected experience in the water, session after session.
The Base 3/2mm shorty is designed to offer exceptional core warmth without sacrificing mobility. The 3 mm neoprene on the torso maintains crucial body heat in temperate waters, while the 2 mm panels on the arms and shoulders allow for unrestricted paddling and movement. This thoughtful construction helps to reduce fatigue and extend time in the water, making it ideal for learning and progression. The classic rear zip entry system offers a wide opening, making it incredibly easy and fast to get in and out of the suit, a key benefit for managing large groups and quick turnovers.
Durability is the cornerstone of the ION Base line. This shorty features robust Glued Blind Stitched (GBS) seams, a premium construction method that minimizes water entry and significantly increases the suit´s lifespan compared to standard stitching. The overknee design provides extra coverage and protection against abrasions from the board and minor impacts, while the highly durable Supra_Tex reinforcement on the knees ensures this high-wear area can withstand constant contact with the surfboard.
ION´s BASE line is tailored only for use in schools. Most robust materials available, double-line GBS, Supra_Tex knee and a special Nylon webbing tape inside the calf to protect the material when stepping in. The color theme varies per size for easy recognition on the shelf.
