TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS

Thermal insulation

Neoprene wetsuits trap a thin layer of water around the body.
The water inside the wetsuit gradually warms up,
and heat transfer from the body is reduced.
Together, the wetsuit and the water form a layer of insulation.

Neoprene is a closed-cell foam with nitrogen gas bubbles that have insulating properties.

Weather conditions

The Tribord DG500 neoprene wetsuit is made of 100% neoprene (3 mm) to ensure optimal thermal insulation.

The seams are stitched with strong thread suited to this type of fabric and are glued to keep water from seeping in.
An insulating strip of neoprene is also stitched beneath the zipper.

In moderate to strong wind and cold weather, combine with the Tribord S500 smock.

Freedom of movement

This neoprene wetsuit was designed to make sailing manoeuvres and position changes much easier.

The arms and chest area are made of a separate piece of material for improved freedom of movement.
The legs, buttocks, and knees are also separate pieces, which makes sitting, crouching, and moving in the boat much easier.

All the seams are stretch seams.

Neoprene reinforcements

The neoprene is reinforced on the knees (7 mm), seat, and thighs for added comfort.
These reinforcements
help to prevent chafing and limit wear and tear, as these areas are more vulnerable to friction (rubbing against the deck fittings, strake, carpet, etc.).

Construction

The neck has been designed to limit discomfort and irritation, even for those with very sensitive skin.
However, not everyone’s skin reacts the same way. We recommend that you wear a top under the wetsuit to reduce rubbing and chafing.
