Rip Curl E Bomb Mens 5/3 Winter Wetsuit 2010 Video Review

[dentyshaka]

Okay fantastic, one last thing, would you say then that the e bomb with a thermal rash vest would then equal the f bomb, or shall I go for something like the c-skins wired which is around the same price but is warmer. I have around a 250 budget for a new wetsuit but i want to be able to use the wetsuit as much as possible all year, which is why the e bomb seemed perfect opition but if it isnt going to keep me warm doesnt seem much point, just wanted some advice really. Thanks for the hlep guys!

I would go for the E Bomb and if you needed to at a later date you could always add the thermal rash vest. I think they are warm enough.

I am really interested in buying this suit for christmas in the next few weeks but im still unsure if the suit will keep me warm enough. I am a "hardcore" UK surfer and want it for the next few bitterly cold months where the water can get to as low as 5! Will this suit be warm enough with a thermal rashie underneath or will i have to upgrade to something warmer? Your help would be greatly appreciated

To make this a warmer wetsuit you would need to wear a thermal rash vest under the wetsuit. The E bomb is all about flex and movement. A warmer wetsuit is the F bomb but you lose some of the body flex due to the thermal material being added to the legs and lower body. Saying that the F bomb still has the the E3 material in the wetsuit the same as the E bomb. It gets down to 5 degrees here and my friend has just got the E bomb and is putting a thermal rash vest under it as he loves the wetsuit

The 5/3 is in the title and it is a 5/3mm wetsuit?? This wetsuit is £179 as it is last years not this years at £229. Hope that makes it clear?

I would go for the e bomb 4/3 for where you are.

Hope that helps

Just another question sorry to be disturbing you, but should i get a oneill rg8, a pshyco 2 or a e bomb pro chest zip? for the water of portugal which are usually at 18 degrees in the summer and 14 degrees in winter this would be a wetsuit that i would wear all year. thank you for your help, once again!

Should i buy a e bomb 4/3 2010 or a billabong sg5?

All the billabong suits i had, i mean every single one of them rips in custures.... What do you think?

thank you for your help!

@henriquepfm1992

Billabong have come on along way in terms of construction and we are getting very few back now with any issues, however we very very rarely have any ebombs come back. the SG5 will prob be a warmer suit over the ebomb but nothing compares to the ebomb for flexibility, comfort and durability

[WetsuitCentre]

I would say the Solution gold is the warmer wetsuit because it has the thermal lining and the solar panel on the back. Hope that helps!!

would the e bomb keep u warm in 16 degrees celcius water temp

thanx

[WetsuitCentre]

you would be toasty in an e bomb in 16 degree water for sure. hope that helps

[Spongerking45]

solution gold or ebomb which is warmer and beta

@Spongerking45

I love my ebomb 4/3, i wear it as a summer suit and it keeps me toasty in uk waters until mid Nov where the water is prob 12-14 degrees. In my opinion nothing rivals the ebomb for flex and comfort and if your surfing in 16 degrees flex should come over warmth
