Autumn has arrived! Latest ripcurl drop at www.secretspot.co.uk

Autumn has arrived folks, and with Autumn comes both the winter swells and sudden plummet in temperatures. As the premier cold water surf company, it's our job and pleasure to outfit you in the right gear so your surfs don't suffer.



If you think that looks cold, you'd be spot on. Now seems the appropriate time to introduce the latest drop of Ripcurl winter suits and accessories here at www.secretspot.co.uk. Constructed with the cutting edge E4 neoprene, the latest Ripcurl gear will have you surfing longer and harder!

    Winter is coming, and game of thrones references aside it's going to get absolutely baltic on the east coast in the coming months. With almost mystical timing, we've just had the latest drop of ripcurls' new winter suits at the spot.. Some might say we even planned it this way! This blog will highlight the features of the new ripcurl suits hitting our shelves this week, including our candid opinion of their latest E4 neoprene. As usual if you lovely folks have any questions, please feel free to contact us at any of our locations.


Beginning with the Ripcurl 'Omega', this suit is the successor to the extremely popular Dawn Patrol, and will be the budget suit to go for this winter. Featuring the super stretch FleeFlex neoprene with an underlining of UltraLite Neo rubber, this is a low price suit with some big budget features. At only £104.95, this 5/3mm winter suit will keep you toasty and flexible, perfect for the weekend warrior who doesn't want to leave his testes in the north sea! The suit comes with the hydroloc collar as standard to prevent flushing, while a good old back zip completes this classic wetsuit. CLICK HERE FOR THE OMEGA 5/3MM


The 'Dawn Patrol', Ripcurl hugely popular budget suit of the last 9000 years has finally been promoted! No longer will this beauty sit at the bottom of the wetsuit food chain, it is now a middle market winter suit with some awesome new features. Firstly, we need to mention the flash dry lining and brand spanking new E4 neoprene which comes as standard.This equates to 30% more stretch and 20% less weight than last years model, resulting in a seriously improved wetsuit. The back zip with internal batwing will help prevent flushing, and the mesh sewn chest panel will keep you that extra bit warmer, Available in both black or blue, this is a good looking high end suit for a middle market price at only £149.95. CLICK HERE FOR THE NEW DAWN PATROL

Ripcurl's 'Flashbomb', widely regarded as one of the finest winter suits available has also gone under refurb. The famous flash bomb lining has been reconstructed from E4 neoprene, giving more stretch and less weight. The flashdry technology that goes into each and every suit ensures you never need to put on a soaking wetsuit again, while the seams are externally glued, internally taped and blind stitched throughout. This is a top end high performance winter suit, with almost every innovative and ground breaking feature Ripcurl could throw at it. The Flashbomb has earned wide recognition throughout the surfing world, resulting in the awarding of 2 SIMA awards for the best wetsuit.At £339.95, this is well worth the money for your a regular cold water veteran. Available in both a 5/4mm and 6/5/4mm thickness.
Finally, our opinion of the E4 super strech neoprene. This will quickly cement Ripcurl's reputation as a market leader, as it is a phenomenal form of neoprene. Supremely light and unrestrictive, the experienced surfer will immediately feel the difference. If your getting in the sea regularly and are tired of the same clumsy heavy winter suits, this is the way forward.
