Cressi 'Apnea' 5mm 2-piece Spearfishing Wetsuit is a highly stretchy, non-camo spearo wetty built with an open-cell internal lining, integrated hood and Glued and Blind Stitched Seams [GBS]. The Cressi Apnea laughs in the face of icy water because the combination of GBS seams and Open-Cell are crucial to all cold-water diving spearfishing wetsuits.
Neoprene simply insulates against the outside temperatures and reflects heat loss from your body, back towards your body, therefore if you don't have an effective seal it won't work properly, it's like having the heater on but the windows down. Open-Cell neoprene is a non-coated neoprene that is extremely 'sticky' and tends to suck down onto your skin [due to the octopus sucker like bubbles inside the rubber itself] thus creating an even better seal.
Cressi's anatomical cut considers diver anatomy to direct the cut and panneling in order to optimise the suit flexibility and movement when spearfishing and freediving.
**2 piece Wetsuit includes high-waist cut pants and jacket.
Because this suit is Open-Cell internally lined we suggest using a lubricant when putting this wetsuit on.
Cressi 'Apnea' 5mm 2-piece Spearfishing Wetsuit - Mens Features:
- 5mm Medium Density Neoprene: Average thickness that will cater for most Australian conditions, depending on your own personal tolerance to cold. A medium density neoprene resists the compression associated with deep dives therefore will remain effective even at great depths.
- Glued and Blind-Stitched Seams: The stretchiest sealed seam available also happens to be the best value but can get more info on our .
- 2 Piece Style: The lack of zipper on a two-piece suit is what makes them so ideal. A zipper is the only part of a wetsuit that can't stretch so having a two-piece results in the stretchiest possible suit. Another bonus to having 2 pieces is that the user can adjust the 'height' of the suit by repositioning the beaver-tail clips with a phillips head.
- Open Cell internal lining: Open-Cell neoprene is a non-coated neoprene that is extremely 'sticky' and tends to suck down onto your skin [due to the octopus sucker like bubbles inside the rubber itself] thus creating an even better seal.
- Loading Pad: Save your sternum from the pressures produced when loading a speargun.
- Coated Kneepads: Greatly increases durability around your knees.
- Hooded
