Base wetsuit Information:

Semidry means that it is almost a dry suit, ie sealed seams, water can only enter through the neck, cuffs and zipper. The advantages of the semidry is; No cold shock when you jump in, it's easy to warm up and retains heat better than a wetsuit does.

Flat lock is a self-locking flat quality seam that is comfortable on the body and is very durable. On all BASE suits that are not GBS.

GBS means Glued and Blind stitched. It is a durable quality seam that is waterproof. A glued seam where the thread is not sewn through the entire material (neoprene).

Liquid Seal is an additional protection of liquid neoprene on the outside of seam. Enhances the stitch that becomes stronger and makes the seam waterproof. Extends the life of an already sealed seam.

Glide Skin is a rubbery surface of the neoprene which does not bind any water and have very little resistance in the water (glides well). It is a very flexible material that allows the neoprene to stretch better. (A little more fragile, so be careful, especially when you put on the suit.)
