Bright Colour Wetty

Postby LooseJuice » Sun Aug 31, 2008 7:40 pm

Hey guys, just getting set up for winter and I was wondering which companies make coloured wetsuits as I do not see many about?! I have seen a couple of oniell psychos but nothing along the lines of e-bomb fanning with lots of colour in a 5/3. Any thoughts would be appreciated as I can not find any here in the SW UK. Cheers. :oops:

what does it matter what colour your suit is as long as it keeps you warm.

does wearing white wetty reflect the sunlight? thus causing less wearing and tearing of the suit?

i recon if you buy a crate of bananas, peel 'em and use the skins, coupled with a sewing machine you might get somewhere. it may not keep you warm, but hey! it'll be a bloody bright suit. you'll stand out, and im sure people will remember you... :lol:

the only bright suit i like is that fanning e bomb, but have to agree with the rest, - black all the way!

Roy Stewart is a guy who lives in New Zealand, is an old time forum member, where we used to watch him, and Brent, another old timer, fight it out for days on end through the forum. Good times.....

He makes hollow wood boards with some very different ideas such as tunnel fins and boards exceeding 20 feet. And him and all his family have bright pink custom made wetsuits.

Haha awesome thanks Tomcat I see the deal now. I say good on him running the pink suits, being an individual and not following the crowd. Pink is maybe kinda hard to pull off but hey he has balls! Pat O'Connell e.t.c seems to run some fairly crazy camo setup hurley suits e.t.c I dont know why you do not see any for sale?!!
