YOU ARE AN ADVANCED SURFER

You surf intensively, and it is your favourite sport. During your sessions, you paddle out to the line-up, duck-dive under the breaking waves if you are on a shortboard, or turtle-roll if you are on a longboard. You show dedication in powerful waves of more than one metre. We have designed a range for you that is suited to your intensive surfing and body shape.

THIS SHORTY HAS NO ZIP!

This long-sleeved high-leg shorty made from 1.5 mm neoprene is zip free and designed for advanced and experienced female surfers. Putting this type of shorty on isn’t the easiest thing to do first of all, but it offers exceptional freedom of movement when paddling. After time, you will get used to putting this on, the neoprene slowly gets looser and it will become second nature.

Choose the right size

To make the most of the features of your wetsuit, it is necessary to choose the correct size. A surfing wetsuit should be a very tight fit and there should be no visible folds. When dry, it is perfectly normal to feel like it is too tight, this discomfort disappears as soon as the wetsuit gets wet.

How to choose the right wetsuit (Part 1)

The first selection criterion when choosing a surfing wetsuit is the water temperature. Water temperature varies according to the location and the time of the year. Systematically make sure that the water temperature at your spot corresponds to the recommended temperature range: Warm water above 20°C. Temperate water between 17°C and 22°C. Cold water between 12°C and 17°C. Very cold water between 7°C and 12°C.

How to choose the right wetsuit (Part 2)

The 2nd criterion to take into account is the length of your sessions. If your sessions last less than an hour, the 100 models will be suitable. For up to 2 hours, opt for the 500 models and for up to 3 hours, the 900 models. Compared to the 100 models, the 500 models will be warmer and more efficient at reducing fatigue (more freedom of movement) and irritation. The same is true for the 900 models compared with the 500 models. NOTE: the 900 models are easier to put on.

MAXIMUM FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT

The 900 OLAIAN Women’s wetsuit range offers a style and material specifically chosen to facilitate paddling and fully ease movement. The entire wetsuit is made from ultra-stretch neoprene. All the seams are stretch seams. the fact that this wetsuit has no zip, completely frees the back while swimming.

STAY WARM FOR LONGER THANKS TO OUR THERMAL ACCESSORIES! EACH TEMPERATURE RANGE HAS ITS OWN OUTFIT…

When we are in the water, we lose more than half of our body heat through our extremities (feet, hands, head). Consequently, here are the recommended accessories:
– in warm water and temperate water (>17°C) => neoprene low booties.
– in cold water (12 – 17°C): High booties (boots) and gloves.
– in very cold water (7 – 12°C): High booties (boots), gloves, hood and hooded top.

KEY POCKET

There is an elastic to hold your key around the collar flap.

Neck

The neck finish has been developed to limit irritations. According to the sensitivity of the wearer, a UV top can be worn under the wetsuit to reduce the risk of irritation. The application of grease (e.g. Vaseline) in friction areas (neck, underarms, knees) is also recommended if wearing the diving suit for long periods. When first trying on, the neck area may feel tight, but this will become looser once in the water.
