Matt Gallagher. You may have heard of him if you follow NCW’s blog regularly. He’s our kneeboard shredder from Down Under. And shred he does, as can be seen in the accommodations shots fr Chris Hewgill.
Matt’s an understated individual who doesn’t shout about what he does. But he rips, has the respect of his peers and does things his own way. Perhaps one of the reasons he chooses to ride a kneeboard. Considered a fringe surfing vehicle kneeboards aren’t as popular as surfboards, as if that needs pointing out. But that doesn’t bother Matt…
There’re always more than one way to skin a cat, so the saying goes. Surfboards aren’t the only way to go if waves are your thing. So take a leaf out of Matt’s book. Broaden your horizons, do your own thing and be individual. Oh, and choose NCW’s Long john wetsuit for summer surf shredding while you’re at it!
Long John sleeveless unisex wetsuit made with thermal lined stretch neoprene
Our sleeveless unisex long john wetsuit was developed with help of our sponsored riders over many seasons. The NCW 2mm thermal long john sleeveless wetsuit has a single velcro shoulder entry system (as shown) making it nice and easy to get into. It’s a great product for stand up paddle boarding as there is no underarm restriction and you won’t overheat if you wear on it’s own.
Made with strong flatlock seams and high stretch neoprene our long john wetsuit is also fully lined with our thermal watersport fleece. Both our sponsored riders and many buyers feel this makes these as warm as a traditional 3mm neoprene wetsuit but a great light weight alternative.
One advantage of them being thinner than a traditional 3mm L.J. is that they are thin enough to get under your full wetsuit for added winter warmth. We have buyers that use our long john wetsuit under a summer wetsuit to extend the seasonal use and others have used them under a 5/3mm winter suit when they really feel the cold. We’ve sold a fair few to Guys that ride the Severn Bore to use under their suits and they have been really stoked with our long john wetsuits. We also offer a short leg (short john ) version of this suit.
If you really feel the cold try one of these along with our thermal hooded neoprene rash vest for added core warmth. Note some sizes now come with our Celtic Green logo rather than red (see product images above).
And of course they work great on their own in warmer times and warmer summer seas too.
