What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying: "I like this spring suit for shoulder-season sessions when flexibility and comfort matter most. The E5 neoprene feels soft and stretchy, and the chest zip keeps flushing to a minimum. It's warm enough for cool mornings but light enough to stay comfortable once the sun's out." We suit up in the Dawn Patrol 2/2 Chest Zip Spring Wetsuit when warm-water sessions still call for a little extra coverage. Rip Curl blends performance-driven design with eco-conscious materials, creating a spring suit that feels good in the water and aligns with a lighter environmental footprint. The E5 neoprene delivers impressive stretch and comfort, while the 2/2mm thickness hits the sweet spot for mild conditions. A chest zip entry improves paddling freedom and reduces water entry, and glued-and-blindstitched seams with E5 taping reinforce high-stress areas. Finished with a recycled internal lining, plant-based foam, and water-based lamination, this wetsuit is built for smooth, comfortable sessions from the first paddle out to the last wave in.
