“It’s too cold,” isn’t a valid excuse. Dress for the weather, and don’t miss a session this winter. ION has developed a line of drysuits that are jam-packed with bells and whistles. See below, information provided by ION, to learn about the suits that will extend your kiteboarding season indefinitely!
Built to conquer even the fiercest of sub-zero temperatures, the Fuse and the Envee Dry Suits are the warmest drysuits on the market. After warmth, safety is our primary concern so we combine features such as the Storm Whistle and Reflective prints so you can go forth and ride confidently. The final touch is the rigorous testing of the water proof Diving Drysuit Seams each suit must surpass before leaving the factory. Come wind or waves you’re guaranteed to get your adrenaline x no matter what.
Storm Whistle
Ever tried to call for help in a roaring storm? Difficult! That’s why we looked for the loudest safety whistle on the planet and found it: The Storm Whistle®! This incredible whistle is twice as loud as any other mouth-blown whistle in the world and even the US military, special forces and the police are using it. And the best thing is it even works in and under the water due to its patented harmonic chamber creating the extreme 3150-hertz frequency.
Reflective
Visual safety for FUSE and ENVEE drysuits: being out on the water during the cold winter can be seriously dangerous especially because it is getting dark much earlier. In case of an emergency, you can rely on additional reflective prints on the shoulder and hood area, which makes a lot easier to be detected by SAR crew searchlights.
Latex Cuffs
Only super flexible SEAMTITE® Latex Cuffs by the premium brand SPECIALISEDLATEX are used for the FUSE drysuit on the wrists and ankles to prevent water leaking into the drysuit. The neck cuff is made of super soft and stretchy Neoprene with Gli- de_Skin inside similar to our Onyx models to improve warmth, wearing comfort and to avoid.
Dry Zip
Premium brand TIZIP Master_Seal® zipper prevents water from leaking in and makes the FUSE drysuit highly waterproof for above-water sports like kiting, windsurfing, surfing, SUPing, etc. The VISLON quality tooth construction provides a smooth low- friction closing/opening and keeps the water out effectively. It is also much more flexible and needs less lubrication than other.
P Zip (only for FUSE)
The ultimate answer to a full bladder in a drysuit when it’s freezing outside: This TIZIP Master Seal® zipper (same quality as on the back) provides the crucial feature for a long day on the water. The easy pull zipper tape can be stored away inside the opening above, so nobody will even notice it’s there.
Hero Meter
Wanna know if you are a true hero on the water? Just check out the ION Hero Meter on the left wrist of your FUSE drysuit. It will tell you roughly the surrounding temperature and the equivalent hero-level … OK, frankly this feature is more a fun little gadget, but we love it anyway! By the way, if you don’t know Ötzi, just google it …
