Why buy a Prolimit Predator wetsuit?

Ride the waves with confidence in the Predator wetsuit, designed for the modern surfer who demands performance, flexibility, and comfort.

The wetsuit balances warmth and flexibility, thanks to the innovative double-layer construction of Down Airflex and NaturePrene2® for a secure yet flexible fit.

Crafted with 5 mm of NaturePrene2® in the core area to retain heat and 4 mm panels on the arms and legs for maximum freedom of movement, it allows you to perform at your best even during long sessions in cold water.

Freedom of movement is guaranteed at any water temperature.

Naturprene 2.0 is FSC-certified and completely neoprene-free, making the Vapor lightweight, highly elastic, and eco-friendly, setting new standards in the world of performance wetsuits.
Designed to optimize your time in the water, allowing you to do more, the Vapor features strategically placed panels and a C-shaped front zipper. The seams are triple-glued and sealed with liquid rubber, offering durability, waterproofness, and exceptional stretch.

Features:

• GBS Seams: Triple-glued panels sewn together using a special method. Partial perforation of the neoprene ensures the suit's seams are waterproof. Each thread is protected by tape at the end. The perfect finish ensures this suit is indestructible. Designed to adapt to the rider's body without excessively stretching the neoprene, which prevents thinner neoprene from stretching and losing its thermal insulation.
• Zodiac2 Lining with Thermal Rebound: Zodiac Jacquard velour fleece on the inside, layered with quick-drying thermal fleece for added warmth and comfort. It absorbs water from the skin, quickly releases it, and increases comfort. The Thermal Rebound lining is derived directly from survival blankets. Additionally, there's an extra protective layer between the neoprene and the Zodiac to reflect body heat and block cold winds, keeping you comfortable, dry, and lightweight.
• C-Zip: Featuring a YKK design, this C-shaped front zipper ensures optimal comfort and warmth. This innovative zipper provides a secure fit while allowing for effortless entry and exit.
• Ideal for any water sport: Kitesurfing, Windsurfing, Wing surfing, Wing foiling, Surfing, SUB, SUP, Swimming

Prolimit Naturprene 2:

• 100% Neoprene-Free Material: Naturprene 2 is made entirely from FSC-certified natural rubber. USDA certified, 80% natural rubber, 20% recycled carbon black, and enriched with oyster shell powder and soybean oil.
• Water-based Glue: Wetsuits are laminated with a water-based glue: Acqua-a. This glue is free of solvents and chemicals, preventing latex allergies. It also won't dissolve in water.
• PAH, ROHS, and REACH Compliant: Prolimit wetsuits are PAH-free (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) and 100% REACH compliant. This means Prolimit has successfully banned the use of extender oils in neoprene sheets, for a better environment. REACH is a European Union regulation adopted to improve the protection of human health and the environment from the risks posed by chemicals in the manufacturing process. PAH-neutral neoprene has improved characteristics such as weight and elasticity, preventing skin irritation. Prolimit has banned the use of extender oils, which is better for the skin and nature.
• DOPE-Dyed Yarns: The traditional wetsuit dyeing method is water-intensive, uses a lot of energy, and produces a large amount of industrial wastewater and toxic chemicals. The solution dyeing process used by Prolimit saves energy and is environmentally friendly. Solution-dyed yarns are made by adding dye to the melted polymer during spinning. This process, in which the yarn is colored without the dyeing process, saves 104 L of water per kg of fabric.
• FSC Certified: The Forest Stewardship Council monitors and confirms that specific forest areas are managed in line with FSC principles and criteria.
• ​​Soybean Oil: One of the components used to create Naturprene 2, an edible oil extracted from soybeans, 100% plant-based.
• Oyster Shell Powder: Derived from oyster shell waste washed ashore, this powder is an important enriching component in the blend of Prolimit's new Naturprene 2 rubber.
• Eco-friendly Carbon Black: Derived from recycled tires that are shredded and transformed into carbon black powder. Unlike traditional carbon black, the eco-friendly one reduces energy consumption and CO2 emissions by 200g for wetsuit.
