Rip Curl E-Bomb buying guide
The E-Bomb is Rip Curl's ultimate super-stretch wetsuit — designed for unrestricted movement above all else. E7 neoprene on every panel is 20% more flexible than E6, lighter, and warmer. 100% internally taped seams add durability and eliminate seam bulk. Available in more entry configurations than any other Rip Curl model.
E7 neoprene throughout
Most wetsuits use their best neoprene on key flex zones and less expensive neoprene elsewhere. The E-Bomb uses E7 — Rip Curl's most advanced neoprene — on every panel. E7 has 20% more stretch than E6, lighter weight, and improved thermal properties.
100% internally taped seams
All E-Bomb seams are glued, blind-stitched, and fully internally taped. The internal tape reinforces every seam for long-term durability and adds a second layer of watertightness. A noticeably more durable construction than standard GBS seams.
Entry options
The E-Bomb is available in more entry options than most Rip Curl models. Zip-free — maximum stretch and performance, no zipper drag. Chest zip — watertight anti-flush system. Back zip — easiest entry, good for recreational surfers. Hooded 4/3mm zip-free — for cold winter sessions when a separate hood isn't wanted.
E-Bomb vs Flash Bomb
Both are premium E7 neoprene suits. The Flash Bomb's defining feature is FlashDry — dry in 30 minutes. The E-Bomb's defining feature is maximum stretch — E7 throughout with 100% taped seams. Choose the Flash Bomb for fastest drying. Choose the E-Bomb for maximum flexibility and durability.
