For summer in Tasmania, we recommend a lightweight steamer, or for the height of summer, you may want a short arm steamer or a long sleeve springsuit. 

Our preferred lightweight Summer steamer is the Hyperfreak 3/2 or Psycho One 3/2mm, and if you want a solid value option on a budget, the Defender 3/2mm is also a good all-rounder. An option is to run your Autumn/Spring transition steamer right through summer, for more info on those types of suits, check out our autumn/winter recommendations here.

For a short arm steamer or a long sleeve springsuit, you can’t beat the Hyperfreak Series for complete freedom of movement, but keep in mind they won’t be super warm.

The Defender Series also has these spring suit variations covered, and while not as ridiculously light and flexible as the Hyperfreak (nothing ever has been) are great all round performers. It’s a warmer series than the Hyperfreak, at a lower price.

It just depends on what’s most important to you - warmth / flexibility / price.
