Ahh, summer in Sydney! Depending on the month and potential north current upwelling, you might be just boardies and some sun protection, a spring suit variation, or even back into the bloody steamer on Christmas day! But for this guide, we’ll focus on the summer staples - jackets, springsuits and lycra. (Check out our Autumn/Spring guide for more neoprene coverage).

Jackets / Springsuits:

The Youth Reactor II 1.5mm Long Arm Crew with a pair of boardies is probably the go-to kit for any grom this summer. If this isn't enough warmth because that nor-easter is relentless and the cold currents have returned, you'll have no troubles surfing all day long in a Youth Reactor II 2mm Short Arm Springsuit.


Lycra:

Skin protection is nothing to take lightly. But lathering up suncream all over the upper body can be a huge hassle especially if you’re frothing to get out there. Sydney summer sun can pack a wallop, luckily we’ve got plenty of options to suit anybody.

Our Skins range, in particular the Skins Long Arm Crew, is the best option for overall Sydney sun protection and to guard against rashes. Skins also come in Short Arm versions, as well as 'Rashie Tee' options, which are a slightly looser fit.
