Description
Prolimit Global wetsuit
are the perfect combination of our latest neoprene technology
and designs concepts, creating the ultimate all-round performance
wetsuits.
Global series wetsuits are the multi
sport option with increased durability. The unique waterblock
system prevents water entry while the Uphaul strap makes
zipping up easier and more comfortable.
The Global suits features Double ProteX knees and
inner thigh reinforcement for maximum durability.
Neoprene/Velcro ankle flaps are is used for easy entry.
What we're looking for is a wetsuit that is designed
to withstand the toughest of conditions that our
sport can throw at us,
yet have that in-built flexibility which allows us
as a rider to perform the way we want to play! They even
look good too!
The Global Series is ideal for riders looking for maximum
durability without compromising cold water performance.
Panel Optimisation:
- Flex Optimised:
The neck and inner arm areas of the Global series features
the new Airflex² Skin neoprene for perfect mobility
and freedom of movement. These panels are aligned to mimic
high movement areas of the body. This allows for maximum
compression and extension of the panels with the least effort.
- Heat Optimised:
The Global Series features increased panel thickness in
the back and chest areas to maintain body warmth in all
conditions. The upper back features a dual layer of neoprene
with an internal Airflex² waterblock. The external
mesh layer optimises warmth and limits windchill. This construction
performs a dual purpose by preventing water seepage through
the zipper.
- Durability:
Our dual sandwich Protex Knee and inner thigh Protex layer
make the Global Series ideal for riders looking for maximum
durability without compromising cold water performance.
Shape:
Custom designing the right curves into the shaped seams of
Prolimit wetsuits, depends on a combinations of 3D CAD design
and real world fitting. In the end it gives Natural shape
to their products. The seams/shape guarantees a perfect fit
and optimal performance.
Less seams/curved lines means less shape. Less shape
means the neoprene needs to stretch more to adapt
to your body.
Stretching means that the neoprene will get
thinner and will lose some of its insulation ability. Prolimit
uses lots
of Natural shaping seams for better fit, more stretch
and movement, more insulation and warmth!
Materials:
- Airflex 2 Neoprene:
Through ongoing research and development into thread and
laminating technology, Prolimit's innovative Airflex
2 Neoprene rede-fines all dual laminate materials.
The new inner lining features increased flexibility
and abrasion resistance.
The second generation Aircore neoprene ensures the lowest
weight available in neoprene today, while radically maximizing
flex and limiting thermal transfer. The lightest, warmest
stretchiest neoprene on the planet with maximum UV tolerance.
- Water Repellent
Double Lined Materials:
Prolimit uses on all double lined wetsuits a water repellent
coating, which keeps its characteristics close to Single
Lined Mesh Wetsuits.
- G–Rex Neoprene:
Prolimit use two kinds of G-rex neoprene in our wetsuits;
closed cell G-rex mesh and a double lined version.
G-Rex mesh neoprene is an extremely versatile blend
of neoprene which is comparable with other high performance “Hyper
stretch” neoprenes
on the market. Focusing on developing the memory characteristics
and durability. G-Rex Double Lined has a GR lining
on the inside and outside of the suit to ensure that
the neoprene laminate is virtually indestructible.
Construction:
- Skin, Chest
and Back Panels:
Prolimit use Skin Chest and back panels as a standard construction
on all Prolimits high-end wetsuits. The panels are
40% warmer than lined materials. The SKIN chest and
back panels preventing windchill on most of the torso.
SKIN chest and back panels are a MUST for thermal insulation.
- Seam Lock:
On all three
or four way seam connections, Prolimit use a big extra
reinforcement patch, which strengthens the seams in this
area. Manually applied patches are strong, durable and increase
the lifetime of their suits.
- Titanium Coating:
Airflex & G-Rex neoprene feature a titanium coating,
which improves the thermal insulation of the suit by up
to 20 percent. This coating is placed onto the in side of the neoprene,
where it reflects heat back. This is done without an increase
in thickness, or reduction in flexibility of the neoprene.
- FTM Blind
Stitched Seams
Triple glued, outside of
the seam is Blind stitched, Inside is Stitch less with
an extra FTM seal on the outside of the seam. Strong, watertight,
high wear resistant and UV proof.
Features:

- Waterblock System:
This waterblock layer became a standard
in high-end wetsuits. Still it is a hassle with rolling
down neoprene, neoprene get stuck in the zipper and
closing and opening of the zipper. Prolimit has solved
all this by adding an up haul string, which is attached
to the zipper puller. No more hassle, easy and comfortable.
An original Prolimit innovation.
- YKK Metal Zipper
Puller
- EZI Zipper
Puller:
Prolimit wetsuits feature the Ezi (easy) zipper puller
extension. The zippers are getting shorter. Prolimit
either have to lengthen the zipper puller strap, which
will get in the way during active sport, or shorten
with the disadvantage that you have to
be made out of elastic to be able to close the zipper by
yourself. The Self-retracting zipper puller extends to
full length when in use and retracts neatly when attached
at the base of the zipper. This prevents the puller from
getting in the way during active sports. Another original
patented Prolimit innovation.
- Key Pocket
- Back-Up Shield
- An
extra neoprene layer behind the zipper. If water penetrates
the suit, the back-up will guide it out through the water
relieve hole.
- Easy Leg Entry with Velcro Leg
Closure:
All
Prolimit suits are easy to get in and out of. Prolimit
use easy entry leg openings for easy entry with an additional
high quality Velcro wrap. These are the best for both windsurfers
and kite boarders and avoid water entry.
- 5 Way Flex Protex
Kneepads:
On all double lined knee’s, Prolimit use unique ProteX
5 way flex design kneepads. High resistant, slim shaped
and extremely stretchy, which won’t limit the stretch in the knee
area. On full skin wetsuits, Prolimit use a Double ProteX
kneepad, still extremely flexible (5 times more flex than comparable wetsuits), strong,
durable and slim shaped.

What is a steamer
wetsuit ?
A 'Steamer' is a wetsuit with sealed seams, usually achieved
by blind stitching. This stops the majority of cold water
from re-entering the suit once your body has initially heated
it up. Winter wetsuits are steamers with a 5mm body and legs
for warmth and 3mm arms for manoeuvrability.
