Once again we have got together with C-Skins to produce our unique "Try before you buy" four seasons wetsuit for all year round use. Basically we've taken the best selling C-Skins React and "done things to it". 

Our "Croyde Bay" version is as follows...

• A marriage of Summer and Winter Neoprene thicknesses
• Torso 4mm, Glued, Blindstitched with LQT Liquid Taped Seams
• Arms in 3mm Superstretch
• 5mm Chest Panel with Thermal lining
• SMS non-tear outer Chest Panel (as used om their £220+ suits)
• Blind-Stitched YKK Zip

 2010 sees the third version of this wetsuit, a joint project between C-Skins and ourselves. Only one batch is made per year. Originally this suit was developed for our hire fleet and this is still it's main purpose. 24 years of hiring suits has taught us a thing or two and we needed a suit to meet the following criteria...

• To fit as many body shapes as possible within each size
• To fit well, be warm and be easy to get on and off
• To be as durable and maintaince free as possible
• To be capable of all year round use
• To be reasonably priced.

Using the C-Skins React pattern we started with a 4mm torso, uprated the chest panel with the SMS Thermally lined 5mm  panel as used on the C-Skins Session/Angel Winter suit. Most suits these days have a single lines "mesh-skin" chest but this is subseptable to tears and finger nail damage so we upgraded to SMS (Synthetic Mesh Skin). By limiting the 5mm to the chest and using top quality 4mm with the best "welded" seams we have created a suit that is light enough to wear in summer and warm enough to wear in winter. Just to be clear.. we are talking about winter in
