Like the name suggests, the O'Neill Epic 4/3mm CT Full Suit Wetsuit is something different in the world of surfing gear. The lower body design is based on FluidFlex technology that allows the wearer to achieve a full range of motion that isn't possible with other design methods. The theme of advanced technology continues with the Glideskin material used to the fashion the neck facing and the kevlar with d-foam construction on the knees. However, no one should have to miss out on a favorite regular feature to keep up with what's new in the sport. The unfinished leg openings and external key pocket may seem a bit low-tech by comparison, but they're just as welcome as any of the other options. Anyone who has spent any amount of real time carving a barrel knows just how important critically taped junctions are, and O'Neill didn't forget these vital reinforcements either. This is a wetsuit that truly is as epic as its name.
