Wind wetsuit

Postby Glenn Wakefield » Fri Jun 07, 2013 6:37 am

Who carries wind-style wetsuits in the area?

Been using my triathlon wetsuits, they're expensive and getting trashed though. Need something made for the sport, and 'wear & tear'. Kiting Magazines have great looking suits in them, but can't really ever locate a Utah dealer for what I see advertised.

Ideas for local places with inventory to try out fitting?

Being landlocked there are not many locations that stock wet suits, marine products in salt lake has a selection, for sizing, and most people tend to mail order stuff, Jon at mountain top kites carries ion gear which is wind specific, and worth every penny.

Having backcountry.com and their return policy locally is also nice. I scored a 300 plus dollar suit from gear trader.com one of backcountry.coms sister sites for under a 100.

Good luck,

Thanks for the tip. I emailed Mountain Top. Prefer to shop/buy local if I can.

Will move to mail order if I need to...
