Dominate the transitional seasons and extend your time in the water with the RIP CURL Dawn Patrol Short John 2mm Sleeveless Wetsuit. Engineered for the surfer who demands performance, flexibility, and value, this shorty suit is the ultimate solution for warmish climates and those perfect days when boardshorts aren´t quite enough. Experience the perfect balance of core warmth and unrestricted movement, allowing you to paddle stronger and surf longer.
The Dawn Patrol Short John is a classic transitional wetsuit that is perfect for warmish climates when the water temp starts to dip into the teens. The sleeveless cut is ideal for paddling with zero resistance, and E5 neoprene and high-stretch seams provides the perfect blend of durability, warmth and flex across the chest and legs. This design keeps your core insulated while leaving your arms completely free, eliminating shoulder fatigue and maximizing your paddle power for catching more waves.
Constructed with Rip Curl´s renowned E5 neoprene, this suit offers exceptional lightweight flexibility and a soft, comfortable feel against the skin. This high-stretch material works in harmony with the sleeveless design, ensuring every movement, from popping up to carving a turn, feels natural and uninhibited. Complementing the premium neoprene are the strategically placed Mesh Skin panels on the chest and back. These panels absorb solar heat and significantly reduce wind chill, providing crucial extra warmth to your vital organs where it matters most.
Durability and freedom of movement are further enhanced by the E-Stitched high-stretch seams throughout the suit. This seam construction is designed to move with your body, preventing restriction and ensuring the wetsuit maintains its integrity session after session. Getting in and out is a breeze thanks to the reliable and easy-to-use rear back-zip entry system, complete with a long pull-cord so you can gear up and get out to the lineup without hassle.
Whether you´re surfing, paddleboarding, or engaging in any other watersport, the Rip Curl Dawn Patrol Short John delivers the essential performance features you need.
