This starts with your Wetsuit. The thickness of your wetsuit is determined by the sea temperature. In general, you can get through the winter with a 5/4 suit. The table below shows which thickness you need, at which water temperature.
The thicknesses come with two numbers. The first number is the mm thickness on the torso and the second number is the mm thickness on the arms and legs. It is often thinner neoprene on the arms and legs to maintain maximum flexibility, and it is more important to keep your chest and back warm. Most heat leaves the body through the hands, feet, and head. It is therefore useful to ensure that the least heat is lost here. Some winter wetsuits have a cap attached to the wetsuit. The advantage of this is that little water can now enter the wetsuit. You can also choose to purchase a separate cap with your winter wetsuit. For the cap, 5mm thickness is also enough to get through the winter.

The most important thing is that a wetsuit fits well; it should be like a second skin. To find out your size, you need to try on a wetsuit. Feel free to visit our Surfshop in the harbor for this.
