Womens Long Jane Wetsuits
Womens Long Jane Wetsuits (or Long John) are defined by their long legs and sleeveless design, hailing from the early days of surfing and are one of the most popular styles of womens wetsuit. Today the Long Jane is going strong as it is the only wetsuitstyle that will not place any resistance on your paddle/stroke because there's no neoprene on your shoulders or arms - thicker neoprene means more fatigue. The long legs work to keep your lower body warm and for swimmers this helps in your lower-leg buoyancy. Often overlooked in the surfing world is the long-Jane andwetsuit topcombo that is arguably the most seasonally versatile choice - it also doubles the thickness around your torso, considering the thickness of the top and long john are combined.
Although most commonly used by the surfing world we are finding the womens long john style to be the most desirable forTriathlon, ocean swimming, canoeing,kayaking, SUPing, adventure racing and obstacle course racing - basically anything that involves strenuous arm activities.
