O'Neill Hyperfreak 3/2+ Chest Zip Full Neoprenska obleka

I am a surfer that spends most of the time surfing in europe. I already own a 4/3 and a 5/4 hooded wetsuit, but my old 3/2 had worn out. I was looking for a summer suit and tried a few. For someone who isn't the most buff and usually wears size S, i am always looking for a nice and tight wetsuit in the chest/shoulder area. The hyperfreak did that best for me.

The thing i noticed when surfing with this wetsuit is how incredibly smooth and stretchy the neoprene is. I have had a couple but this is just incredibly comfortable when paddling and riding. If you are looking for the absolute warmest 3/2, this is not it. It's warmer than most budget wetsuits, but it is definately not it's standout. The comfort, quick drying and build quality are clearly what O'neill went for here.

To summarize, the hyperfreak is a tight fitting ultra stretchy, comfy wetsuit. It will be my go to for the upcoming summers.

I have been doing water sports in Norway for 17 years. I currently own 6 wetsuits, and I have tried countless wetsuits. Mildly put: I have a strained relationship to wetsuits. It’s the straightjacket I have to accept to keep doing what I love in this harsh climate. To make things worse, I am so oversized in my chest/shoulders that I have just accepted that no wetsuit size will fit my entire body.

This wetsuit revolutionized my relationship to wetsuits. It is so flexible that it gives a perfect fit all over, it’s no hassle to take on/off, the flex makes paddling while surfing free from the restraint I am used to. It’s straight up comfortable to wear. I can not express how much I love this suit. O'Neill put all other brands to shame with this product.

They say it’s not that warm, but I extended my spring season with this suit, possibly because the snug fit gave extra insulation.

Some discard the more top tier O'neill suits due to durability. I have only used the suit for one intense season, but the sturdy seams and construction show now signs of fatigue. Even though it would last one third of the expected lifetime of a suit, I would say it’s worth it.

This is an amazing product in every aspect. When comparing prices in Norway, this came out as a cheaper mid level suit, so I feel I got way more than what I paid for. Be warned as the label says: keep it away from velcro.

I will probably never look at any other wetsuit brand again :)
