Complete Rip Curl Dawn Patrol 5/3 4

The Women's Rip Curl Dawn Patrol back zip steamer offers the perfect balance between function and aesthetic appeal. This wetsuit has many of the high end features you will find in our Ultimate suits. We use a combination of E4 in the arms and Freeflex neoprene in the body. The entire suit is glued and blindstitched with taping in critical stress points to increase durability.

E4 Neoprene
Rip Curl's premium high stretch neoprene. Super stretch and lightweight with a high quality hand feel that is smooth and comfortable against the skin.

Glued & blind stitched seams
Triple glued, double stitched seam that only penetrates one side of the material providing a high stretch, high strength, water sealed seam.

Flash lining
Two engineered layers that funnel water rapidly out of the suit once it is hung up. Also one of the warmest and most comfortable linings available.

Stitchless underarms
Seamless and stitchless underarm and shoulder panels maximise movement and provide ultimate flexibility.

Mesh skin
Smooth mesh panels that absorb solar heat and reduce wind chill.

Batwing system
Provides barrier between back-zip and body to minimize leakage and flushing (back zip wetsuits only).

Stress point taped
Added to high-stress points for increased strength and durability.

S-Flex knee
Highly flexible kneepads allowing maximum movement and lasting durability.
