2024 ION Water Seek Amp 5/4 Back Zip

Max_Flex

Max_Flex represents the pinnacle of stretch in our outer linings. In addition to its outstanding flexibility, it doesn't absorb water; instead, it disperses it through tiny channels. This enhances water evaporation and shortens drying time.

Plasma_Plush

Thanks to the looped structure, Plasma_Plush inside lining traps more air. The result is an insulating layer for increased warmth and plushy comfort.

Eco_Stretch

Eco_Stretch is an outer lining made with GRS-certified recycled nylon. Combining flexibility and comfort, it delivers the stretch needed for unrestricted movement on the water.

Hot_Stuff 2.0

The Hot_Stuff 2.0 comes with a plushier feel due to larger loops that trap more air for heat insulation. It is the stretchiest thermo lining in ION‘s entire range.

Silk_Stuff

A silky interior lining ensures a comfortable feel against bare skin. Despite its cozy appearance, it proves to be incredibly durable with its superb flexibility.

Maki_Tape 2.0

Highly elastic neoprene tape reinforces the seams on the lower body and commonly stressed cuff area from the inside.

I_Foam

Low density I_Foam with peak heat insulation properties containg a mix of limestone and oyster shell powder.

Sweep_Cut

Seam-free shoulder design for maximum paddle reach and freedom of movement.

Seam_Reinforcement

All stress points are reinforced and secured by melco tape from the inside to ensure a longer lifespan of the seams.

Fused Edges

Fused sleeve and leg ends provide a smoother and more resilient finish.

Water_Gate

An internal neoprene panel seals off the back zipper, acting as a barrier to minimize the amount of water rushing into the wetsuit.

Seal_Tite

A narrow rubber strip on the cuffs of the leg and arm ends, as well as on the collar. Ensures a better sealing and prevents the material from leaking.

Drain_Holes

Prevents water buildup within the wetsuit. The Drain Holes are securely fixed from the inside and do not widen.

Leg_Loops

Velcro patch to offer the option of attaching the Leg_loops. The loops can be wrapped tightly around the ankle to prevent water from rushing into the suit.

Sunglasses_Loop

A small webbing loop on the neck of wetsuits and tops to attach the safety line of watersport sunglasses.

Crash_Pads

Integrated padding at shins for low impact protection.

Novaskin

Glued Blind Stitch

Glued and Blind Stitched wetsuits are first glued and then with a curved needle halfway stitched thru the neoprene to prevent water entering the wetsuit.

Oystershell Powder

Biocalcium oxide powder derived from discarded oyster shells is used to partially replace limestone in our neoprene foam formulation. The oyster shell powder is incorporated into the foam compound alongside limestone and Eco Carbon Black.

Aqua-α™

Aqua-α™ is a solvent-free, water-based glue. Unlike conventional solvent-based adhesives, it is formulated without added solvents and is used during the lamination process of wetsuit components.

Limestone Neoprene

Limestone is one of the components used in selected neoprene foam formulations. The foam used in these wetsuits is free from petroleum-based chloroprene rubber.

Eco-Carbon Black

Carbon black is one of the components used in neoprene foam formulations. The Eco Carbon Black used in selected ION wetsuits is recovered from scrap rubber tires through pyrolysis and incorporated into the foam compound alongside limestone and Oyster Shell Powder.

Dope Dying Yarn

Dope-dying infuses dye pigments into molten plastic solution to produce coloured yarns without the dyeing process. This saves tremendous amounts of water while reducing energy consumption and water pollution.
