Gul FreeRide 5/4/3mm Wetsuit

Advantages: Ease of movement, warm,
Disadvantages: Not for the winter,

...I bought this wetsuit in the sale in january when a lot of shops and websites seemed to be gettin rid of last years stock. However, i was not interested in the design so much of the wetsuit as the price and the features. Although having said that I think that this wetsuit looks particulary stylish. I went for the black/blue/grey design. It is mainly black apart from having grey on the lower half of the arm and down the sides, with blue on the top half of the arm and around the back. It also has Smooth skin 5mm chest and back panels to eliminate wind chill. ::: Performance ::: I will admit I have only used this suit a few times but have been very impressed. I have found it very warm, and very easy to move in the suit. The suit has G-Flex shoulder panels which give excellent flexibility as well as having pre-bend limbs. The suit... Read review

Advantages: Keeps you warm
Disadvantages: A bit thin for winter surfing

...Over all I was pleased with this wetsuit, its does the job and was redeemably priced.

If you do own one which is only slightly... Read review

Advantages: cheap and good for the summer
Disadvantages: Not good for winter

...The gul titanium 2 full suit wet suit is very good for the summer. Its lets in water because it has a overlock stitch but that doesn't matter for the summer. I would say even on the coldest summer days I could stay out in the sea for about 2 hours before I really start to feel the cold. This wet suit is so good because of its price at only £40 that's better then buying one for a couple hundred. I brought it a surf shop in Hayle called down the line which is a good shop. I would never wear this wet suit in the winter though it is just to thin at about 2mm. It isn't the best quality wet suit you could buy but what do you expect. I would reckon mend this wetsuit to anyone.... Read review
