Frequently asked questions
Which size should I choose?
Go by height and weight, and check the chest. A wetsuit should fit snugly so that water does not get in; if you are between two sizes, choose the smaller one if you are slim and the larger one if you are more heavily built.
How are the sizes told apart at the school?
Each size has a different colour on the inner and outer lining and the size printed inside and out, so they can be recognised instantly on the shelf.
