DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Freedom of movement
The ION Amaze Amp features Max_Flex in the shoulders, arms, and chest, along with a design that uses fewer panels to give you maximum range of motion. You'll feel the difference when paddling and during power delivery in Surf: the feminine cut follows your movements without hindrance.
Targeted Warmth and Thermal Insulation
To extend your sessions, the wetsuit combines Hot_Stuff 2.0 on the front and Plasma_Plush 2.0 on the back. You benefit from effective insulation on the torso and a cozy back against cold and wind, all while maintaining flexibility for movement.
Watertightness and durability
The seams are glued and blind-stitched, with elastic neoprene tape in high-stress areas and fused edges at the extremities. This means less water infiltration, more comfort, and better longevity for regular use.
Materials and Commitment
Limestone neoprene and Eco_Stretch (on the black colorway) reduce the material footprint while maintaining insulation and flexibility. ION also supports initiatives through 1% for the Planet, a plus if you prioritize gear designed to last.
Practical finishes
The front zip closure makes it easy to put on and adjust with a customizable drawcord. You'll also find useful details: a key pocket, reinforced drainage holes, and separate leg straps for added support during effort.
Recommended use
With its 4/3 mm thickness, this wetsuit is ideal for water temperatures between 10-17°C. It strikes a great balance between warmth and mobility for Surf, Kite, or wingfoil sessions in temperate waters.
