I’m thinking the only way you could pull off wearing this wet suit in the lineup is if you’re a super ripper. Even then, there are only like 4 surf pros that would actually put the thing on. I want to get Ian Walsh to wear this thing towing into some mega bombs somewhere & end up getting a cover. Well, now that I think about it, you don’t really even need to wear this surfing. You could be a snowboard racer and wear it as a speed suit. Go ahead…buy one and defend yourself from Klingons, while boldly going where no man has gone before.

Wearing a rash guard while you’re out in warm waters is so nerdy. The only people wearing rash guards now a days wear them to clubs on the Jersey shore. Quik’s new surf tee is made from ultra-breathable, anti-microbial, spf 50-rated,  bamboo fabric.  This makes it so your shirt will dry fast and won’t stink, while keeping the sun’s rays from turning your skin into bacon. The bamboo is soft on the skin, which is nice, because soft is better than scratchy any day of the week. The raddest thing I found on this shirt is this little loop you can thread your board short’s draw string through – keeping the shirt down around your waist, not all bunched-up like some half tee.

When the warm months of summer arrive, the water warms up. Occasionally, it gets chilly out there on those marathon sessions. This 1 mm vest is perfect for those occasions. The unique design of the vest keeps it on your body during heavy wave wipeouts and not wrapped around your head like some kind of weird hat.  This is good, because you always want to be able to see those next five waves that are about to break on you because you went on the first wave of the set. Perfect for keeping the wind out & rashes off your chest…at least.
