Our windsurfing range has been tailored to meet<br />

the requirements of this demanding sport. Wider<br />

diameter forarms reduce the effects of fatigue and<br />

on our summer suits, adjustable velcro straps allow<br />

a customized fit round the bicep. A reinforced crotch<br />

area provides extra warmth and helps protect your<br />

wetsuit from harness abrasion.<br />

On our winter wetsuits you’ll find our “Easy Step in<br />

System” a Velcro closure on the ankle that makes<br />

it easier to get your feet in and out of your wetsuit<br />

as comfortably as possible.<br />

The Multisport range has been designed for all<br />

round versatility. Strategically placed panels closely<br />

follow the contours of your body to give you all the<br />

flexibility that you need.<br />

High stretch materials have been incorporated into<br />

critical areas, such as under the arms and in the<br />

back so whatever sport you’re doing, these wetsuits<br />

are flexible and comfortable in the extreme.<br />

The Neil Pryde Surf range uses only proven, highperformance<br />

materials that achieve the maximum<br />

in both heat retention and flexibility. Our innovative,<br />

ergonomic panel layout works with the body to give<br />

the wearer a superior fit and unrestricted freedom<br />

of movement.<br />

This range has been developed to ensure maximum<br />

stretch and support. Extremely flexible material<br />

under the arms gives you all the reach you need.<br />

Flex material around the lumbar combined with preshaped<br />

panels puts the skier in the correct position<br />

providing the support that the back demands.<br />

Seamless underarm panels means a complete range<br />

of movement when padding and also helps to<br />

minimize the effects of paddling fatigue, keeping<br />

you on the water for longer. All our surf suits use<br />

specially coated materials for unbeatable durability<br />

that protects your suit from the rough surfaces of<br />

your board and the beach.<br />

<strong>NEIL</strong> <strong>PRYDE</strong> <strong>WETSUIT</strong> <strong>TECHNOLOGY</strong><br />

Neil Pryde makes some of the most technologically<br />

advanced wetsuits in the world. We do this by sourcing<br />

top of the line materials as well as developing new<br />

construction methods to make our wetsuits some of the<br />

most comfortable on the market.<br />

Every suit in our range is tailored with a V-Neck that<br />

redirects pressure away from the throat while the<br />

adjustable closure enables a customized fit.<br />

Vulcanised double Neoprene kneepads protect<br />

from impacts: Windsurfing suits feature moulded buffers,<br />

while our surfing and Multisport line features a special<br />

coating for increased durability.<br />

All our suits feature the Reflex Underarm: High stretch<br />

panels in the underarm allow for maximum mobility<br />

and flex, prevent pinching and reduce the effects of<br />

paddling fatigue.<br />

Similarly, our entire range features de-bossed knee<br />

backs for improved flexibility at the knee as well as our<br />

Profile Leg construction: A new articulated back leg<br />

reduces bunching from behind the knee while ergonomic<br />

leg panels feature a pronounced calf outline and a 3<br />

dimensional knee for superior fit.<br />

Neil Pryde dry suits feature Titanium, a heat retentive<br />

material, and our Twin Turtle Sealing System – a<br />

double seal at both the ankle and wrist for harsh climates<br />

that locks water at two points.<br />

Choose a Sport<br />

Choose a Performance Level<br />

Choose a Temperature Level<br />

Choosing a Neil Pryde Wetsuit has<br />

never been easier. The first thing<br />

that you have to do is pick the<br />

suit that best fits the sport that<br />

you’re going to be using it for.<br />

You can choose from: Windsurfing,<br />

Multisport, Surfing and<br />

Waterski.<br />

Next you need to decide how much<br />

you want to spend on performance.<br />

We have four performance levels<br />

to choose from, with our 5000 series<br />

being the most advanced and<br />

subsequently most expensive<br />

wetsuits, right down to the 2000<br />

series, our entry level suits.<br />

The last thing that you have to<br />

decide is what kind of temperature<br />

range you want to use the suit in.<br />

Check the temperature symbol next<br />

to each suit.<br />

FOOTWEAR <strong>TECHNOLOGY</strong><br />

We’ve completely re-designed our neoprene footwear<br />

line for 2002/2003, with improved sizing and fit, new<br />

high performance soles, and a host of new colours,<br />

details and features.<br />

Comfort is critical with footwear, which is why we’ve<br />

further fine-tuned our sizing and the tailoring of the fit<br />

of our shoes. We’ve also improved the adjustability with<br />

elastic adjustment straps at the arch and ankle to enable<br />

you to get the exact feel.<br />

We’ve also e-built the heel assembly, starting with a<br />

new moulded shape that reduced side-flex but without<br />

“deadening” the “feel” in the shoe. Our 5000 series<br />

features Contour Moulded Achilles Cushions which<br />

improve heelhold and control.<br />

New Matrix Torsion Sole<br />

The sole of the shoe is split into two separate dynamic<br />

areas. The fore foot is where pressure is applied to the<br />

board, while the rear sole area is designed to help<br />

support heel hold. These two dynamic zones are<br />

separated by a flexible Torsion area, which stretches or<br />

contracts to help isolate the forces of one zone from<br />

the other.<br />

Contour Moulded Achilles Cushions<br />

Soft contoured cushions are sewn inside the<br />

boot just behind the ankle-bone to grip the<br />

Achilles tendon, creating a firmer fit and<br />

improved heel hold.<br />

Side-foot Stabilization<br />

ensure enhanced pressure guidance for<br />

board control, while providing important<br />

protection for the feet.<br />

Constructed to offer maximum freedom of movement,<br />

our impact vests provide a combination of protection<br />

and ergonomically engineered comfort. The threelayer<br />

construction absorbs the shock and reduces<br />

the force of the impact by as much as 40% for the<br />

4000 series model and up to even 60% for the 5000<br />

series model.<br />

Extreme moves require extra impact protection,<br />

which is why we have used special reinforcements<br />

and high impact absorbing materials around the<br />

spine and rib area to offer the wearer a superior<br />

level of protection and enhanced performance.<br />

A high performance clothing system,<br />

Neil Pryde Protective Textiles offer you<br />

lightweight,easy-to-wear protection from the<br />

elements. These tops are all designed for multi<br />

purpose applications.<br />

The new Hydrotex line, cut with a loose, relaxed fit,<br />

is extremely quick drying and remains light-weight<br />

when wet. Comfortable yet durable, Hydrotex offers<br />

protection against harmful UV rays.<br />

Specially tailored towards the needs of the young<br />

generation, Neil Pryde offers a complete range of<br />

waterwear products.<br />

Care has been taken to ensure that our products<br />

provide the maximum safety while still allowing the<br />

comfort and freedom necessary to enable kids to<br />

enjoy themselves on or around the water.<br />
