Best Wetsuits for Kitesurfing
Hey Guys,
I'm in that situation where the old torn wetsuit I have isn't cutting it. I'm going to buy something good but I'm not sure what to go for. I live in the UK and get in the water year round. I'm semi-decided on this suit:http://www.boylos.co.uk/products/vie...ns-mutant-54mm I've had O'neill before and with this one the hood can go on or off, which I like. A friend said though that for kiting I would be better with a suit that is fully single lined. He suggested Spartan suits because of their single lined design he says they will be much better in the wind. they're here: http://www.spartanwetsuits.com/ I was just wondering if anyone had any experience with Spartan suits or similar alternatives? Advice and experience will be much appreciated.

Some in Florida use heavier wetsuits and even drysuits in the cooler months of the year in the upper part of the state. Still, in South Florida we don't approach the demands you undergo in the UK in the colder months. I would see what folks have good luck with locally. For my part I have always had good performance with Neil Pryde now NP wetsuits.

I would also say Neil Pryde or NP wetsuits. They make a Really excellent
wetsuits which are specifically made for Wind/watersports like kitesurfing. They have specials layers that protect from the wind and water hitting you and also Super Stretch panels in the areas that need to stretch when kitesurfing. I really like my NP wetsuit and it's lasted longer than the others I've tried
