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 Storm Series is ideal for riders looking for maximum durability without compromising performance.

 

Panel Optimisation:

• Flex Optimised:
  The neck and inner arm areas of the Storm 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 2009 Storm Series features increased panel thickness in the back and chest areas to maintain body warmth in all conditions. The external mesh layer optimises warmth and limits windchill. This construction performs a dual purpose by preventing water seepage through the zipper.
• Durability:
  Dual sandwich Super-Flex Knee and inner thigh Protex layer make the Storm 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:

• YKK Metal Zipper Puller
• 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 Super Flex Kneepads:
  On all double lined knee’s, Prolimit use unique ProteX 5 way superflex 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.
• Extended Cuffs
• Anti-Choke Collar
• Kite Multi Sport Adjusted Arm Panels
• Durable Water Repellent Finish
• 5mm - Body / 3mm Arm/Legs

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.
