When the 2/2 shorty with front zip is the right call
This model is aimed at the warmer part of the season, when a full suit feels too hot but you still want neoprene coverage for comfort and skin protection. The SS short-sleeve cut and short legs work well for surfing, kitesurfing, and wingfoiling in mild conditions—especially for active young riders who are constantly moving and jumping in and out of the water.
Light insulation and wind-chill protection
2/2 mm neoprene provides basic warmth and helps cut wind chill. It’s not made for cold water—its job is to keep sessions comfortable in warmer temperatures and offer a buffer when the wind picks up or the water feels cooler after a longer time in.
Stretch and comfort - Silk_Stuff lining
A thin, smooth Silk_Stuff inner lining improves stretch and next-to-skin comfort. The suit feels less restrictive, is easier to pull on, and stays comfortable through frequent changes and longer sessions.
Flatlock seams and reinforced stress points
Flatlock stitching is a good match for warm-water suits: flexible, comfortable, and designed to help reduce skin irritation. Reinforced stress points add strength where the suit takes the most load, improving durability for frequent use.
S_Type limestone neoprene
ION’s S_Type standard foam is made from limestone instead of oil and delivers a practical balance of warmth and stretch—ideal for a light shorty that’s meant to be used often.
Front zip entry and secure fit
Front zip entry is straightforward at the spot and often feels more secure around the chest. It’s a practical setup for kids and teens who want an easy system that stays in place during active riding.
