New in... Aqualung Aquaflex 5mm Wetsuit

24/7/2018

0 Comments

 
Picture
​Available in male and female fittings, the 5mm AquaFlex wetsuit with super-stretch neoprene, provides the ultimate in comfort and quality. 

With the full super-stretch neoprene used throughout, plus the liquid-sealed seams, the AquaFlex’s quality stands out amongst the competition. 

The suits are made with AquaFlex neoprene which has three times the stretch of standard neoprene, making the suit easy to get on and off and also ensures a great fit for every body shape. The seams are sealed with liquid rubber, which make them durable and protects them from unraveling and also keeps water out and warmth in. The cuffs are all fused with the X-Tend technology which minimises fraying and maximises stretch. The left sleeve is outfitted with a silicone traction pad to keep wrist dive computers from rotating when neoprene compresses. The internal chest and back panels have a thermal loop laminate to help keep warmth at the body’s core.

Features
5mm AquaFlex neoprene used throughout. This is the base thickness of the neoprene layer before the nylon outer and inner layers are added
The outer nylon material is resistant to abrasions and hook-and-loop materials due to the tighter weave. This keeps the suit looking good and functioning well
The inner material is ultra-soft, making these suits easy to don and doff
Skin-in-neck seal provides for a comfortable stretch and seals out water
Internal thermal chest and back material keep warmth at the body’s core
Liquid rubber seams prevent water transfer and unraveling
Silicone print wrist computer traction pad
Three-way zipper seal minimises water entry to maintain warmth
Kidney pad for additional insulation in this high heat loss area
Pre-bent anatomic legs and arms for comfort
The knee pads, wrist and ankles are ultra stretchy

Social Thursday 26th July - Beer Guerrilla 7:30pm onwards with the option of a Curry afterwards..

​​Last time we tried to get to the Beer Guerrilla, someone must have told them and they decided to close that day! This time, we're going to keep it quiet and hopefully they'll never know until we get there!
 
So, on Thursday 26th we will be getting together at the Beer Guerrilla to sample some of their wonderful beers. There is every chance that after a few drinks, some of us may wander up the road and enjoy a curry too!
 
Beer Guerrilla is a local, independent, family run business. They showcase small breweries and producers who value quality over quantity. Beer is a far more varied drink than many people realise, and they introduce the uninitiated to that fact, because if you think you don’t like beer, they bet we can find a brew for you.
 
They stock a huge range of beers from around the world. After all, variety is the spice of life. They’ve got IPA’s, Pale Ales, Sours, Lambics, Saisons, Red Ales, Stouts, Porters, Fruit Beers, Wheats, Belgian Tripels & Quads. Plus, Real Ale in bottles. With that amount of choice, they are confident that we can find a beer to suit anyone’s taste, and a beer to suit every occasion.
 
In addition to their great range of bottles and cans, they have draught and cask beers too. They can pour you a small Craft Beer to sip while you shop, or just to relax with after a hard day.
 
You can see more at their website - www.beerguerrilla.co.uk
 
The Beer Guerrilla is located at 227 Wellingborough Rd, Northampton NN1 4EF
 
Hopefully, we’ll see some of you there.
