With it being winter and all we thought it high time to shine the spotlight on one of NCW’s most versatile products. In fact, this isn’t the first time that the NCW 3mm hooded SUP/windsurf/rigging jacket has been featured. Mainly because we want to get across how broad its application of use is. Which brings us neatly to this particular NCW gear scenario post…
Our wing foiling man in the know has been wanting to get some shots of the rigging jacket in wing foil mode for a while now – so he tells us. When riding above the surface of the water there are more evaporative cooling and windchill effects than if submersible riding – such as when surfing for instance.
Wing foiling exacerbates this wind chill effect even further as riders are traveling much more efficiently through the air. So in winter, on colder days, sessions can feel pretty chilly. But have no fear as the NCW 3mmm hooded neoprene jacket is here to toast things up nicely.
As an additional layer the jacket gives more heat retention and slows down that evaporative cooling effect. This results in riders being super warm, to the point of being hot – so our man tells us. The freedom of movement the jacket provides is on point for sports like wing foiling where upper bodies are quite mobile. And should you take a dunking the rigging coat is easy to swim in and doesn’t get too in the way.
All in the jacket is a superb example of an NCW product that can accomplish many different jobs. You just have to decide what application you’re going to fit it into. For more info on the 3mm hooded neoprene jacket hit the product link below.
