In order to enjoy the waves to the max, the Tango 4:3 , constructed with 100% Yamamoto neoprene, offers the highest degree of elasticity and thermal comfort within its category of thickness. The YKK front zip construction ensures the best seal in the neck area without reducing your range of movement in the shoulders. This, combined with an innovative design in the shoulder area, allows you to paddle without restrictions on your board. Yamamoto 40 neoprene is also incorporated into the shoulders, which allows you to enjoy a greater sensation of freedom when paddling. In addition, 4mm Yamamoto neoprene with fast drying Thermal X inner lining is used in combination with internally sealed seams in order to provide a higher degree of thermal comfort in the torso and legs.
Thermal comfort
In order for you to enjoy the waves in cold temperatures, the Tango 4:3 V2 combines Yamamoto neoprene with 4mm thickness in the legs and 3mm in the torso. This, alongside the Thermal-X FD inner lining and taped seams with inner taping, will provide you with maximum thermal comfort. In addition, thanks to the Smoothskin finish in the wrists and neck that seal the wetsuit, cold water is prevented from entering the suit.
Superior elasticity
The best Yamamoto materials, joined by GBS seams and with an improved patterning, allow you to enjoy maximum flexibility when riding the waves. DS 40 + technology is incorporated into the shoulders so that you can paddle without restrictions.
Comfort
The elasticity of the materials, the blind frontzip construction on one side and the advanced patterning will allow you to put on your wetsuit with great ease. In addition, the soft touch texture of the inner lining, like the Thermal-X FD lining, will make you forget you’re wearing such a thick wetsuit. With a YKK10 close-end zip and an ergonomic pull string you will be able to zip up the suit up easily, even with gloves on.
Durability
The outer DuraSkin fabric, highly resistant to abrasion, guarantees the suit is durable, which will allow you to enjoy your surf wetsuit and the waves for much longer. In addition, the interior taping increases the seam consistency and the Shield+ panels in the knees, an improvement on the previous model and reinforced with nylon, prevent wearing in this hard-hit area. A YKK10 zip is also incorporated into the suit - for extra sturdiness to increase durability.

Cleaning
Neoprene can be damaged by excess salt or other chemicals such as chlorine if used in swimming pools. We recommend washing your wetsuit with plenty of water after each use. A small amount of neutral pH soap can be used and then rinsed out afterwards.
Once clean, make sure prevent it from holding onto too much moisture. Air dry it outside or in a ventilated indoor space, somewhere without direct exposure to sunlight as this can damage the materials.
Storage
Storing your wetsuit properly keeps the materials and seams from creasing and being stretched for long periods of time. It also prevents the material from wrinkling, which can affect both the wetsuit's durability and appearance.
The best way to store a wetsuit is to hang it draped over a hanger from its waist, so that the most delicate areas such as the shoulders and arms do not have any kind of tension on them.
For wetsuits with very flexible shoulders (Apex Flex or Apex Flow), it is important not to place them on a hanger from the shoulder area, as this will degrade the elasticity over time. For the rest of the models, a wide hanger can be used, as long as the wetsuit is not strained in the shoulder or neck area.
Recommendations for use
1) If your suit has Velcro, avoid contact between the Velcro and the inner lining of the wetsuit, as it will damage the fibers in the material. Keep the Velcro covered with the provided fabric patch or make sure that the Velcro is closed, so that the rough part of the Velcro does not damage the inside of your suit.
2) For all suits, especially those made with neoprene, be careful not to damage the neoprene material with your nails when putting on or taking off the suit, as this type of damage is not covered by our warranty policy.
3) Triathlon and open water suits have been designed specifically for swimming. We cannot guarantee correct functioning of the wetsuits for other activities. Any damage to the wetsuit resulting from use in activities other than swimming is not covered by our warranty policy.
4) Avoid leaning on or coming into contact with any surfaces (especially rough ones) while wearing your wetsuit.
