The o neill wetsuit company introduced the double seam weld technology on a limited basis for the winter of 2002. Since the winter of 2003 this wet suit has been more readily available.
This exclusive double seam wetsuit uses a high grade based urethane. It is applied inside and outside in a liquid form to make a glued seam. They were the first to make a flexible and durable stitchless seam.
“There are no weak points where failures can begin with the stitchless double fluid seam weldseam construction”, explains John Hunter, ONeill”s longtime design guru. “For this reason, it creates a much more durable, flexible, water tight suit than anything before.”
It is also a stronger seam than any traditionally glued and blind stitched and taped seam. A 100% water-tight seal is provided by using this new ultraflex DS material designed by O”neill. This new seam was tested extensively by the O Neill design team for durability seal, and comfort both in and out of the water.
The o neill wetsuit seam construction makes this wetsuit the ultimate cold water wetsuit – drier, more durable, warmer and more flexible.
