    I like how a person can stick a logo on something and charge quadriple the price

    Great little vid. Worn many, but always wondered how they were made.

  • @frankneoprenefabricfactory2442

    The video is perfect , we could get complete information about the whole process from raw material to finished wetsuits.

    your suits are fantastic most flexible by far. could use a reiteration to the knee pads they get pressure indentations fast, i longboard mostly. the elbows and knees get subject to a lot of wear

    What type of thread do wetsuits use? I'm trying to repair my billabong wetsuit and I would like to purchase the correct thread that it was manufactured with so I can sew it back together where it was damaged. Any help would be greatly appreciated

      Dental floss works well & not the flat dental tape style, use the waxed string, it’s super strong.
