What is a ping suit?
This is the most common type of ping suit on the market. It is not designed to keep the water out, but to trap it, so that your body then warms it up, creating a thermal buffer between you and the outside.
Made of neoprene - a rubber polymer filled with air bubbles - these ping suits are available in thicknesses of 0.5 mm to 7 mm.
Thanks to their suppleness and modularity, they constitute excellent ping suits.
Tips on how to get into a ping suit
Put your foot in a plastic bag, then slip your leg into your ping suit. Your entire foot comes out without snagging!
To adjust, ask someone to blow into your sleeve from the wrist.
The incoming air inflates the interior of the neoprene ping suit, immediately separating it from your skin. You can then easily proceed with the final adjustments.
Tips on how to take care of your ping suit
1) Soak the inside and the outside of the ping suit in clean water after each session.
2) Clean with a bactericide solution.
3) Rinse thoroughly in clean water.
4) Dry on a wide hanger in a dark and well-ventilated place.
Caution: the sun will cause the colours of the textile parts of the ping suit to fade and speeds up the ageing process of the neoprene.
