Wetsuit accessories buying guide

The right accessories turn the before-and-after into as smooth a routine as the session itself. Here's a guide to everything we carry and why each piece matters.

Changing ponchos — don't leave home without one

A changing poncho lets you change out of your wetsuit anywhere — parking lots, street parks, the beach — without exposure. We keep a great selection covering plush cotton for warmth and absorbency, and lightweight quick-dry microfiber for travel and packing small. Browse changing ponchos.

Changing mats — the ground problem solved

Hot asphalt, sharp gravel, wet concrete, sand contamination — a changing mat handles all of it. We carry cinch-bag mats that fold up around your wet wetsuit and double as a wet bag, and grass mats that are soft underfoot and trap sand before it gets in your car. Browse wetsuit changing mats.

Portable rinse and shower

A portable shower tank at the car means you can rinse your wetsuit in fresh water immediately after every session — the single most effective thing you can do to extend its life. We carry the Block Surf Shower Tank and the Water Buddha Post Surf Shower Kit. Browse wetsuit care and storage.

Wetsuit hangers — never fold your wetsuit

Folding a wetsuit creases the neoprene and degrades it over time. A proper wide-shoulder wetsuit hanger keeps the suit open and drying correctly inside-out. We carry the HangPro Wetsuit Hanger for suits and the Block Surf Bootie Hanger for booties. Browse wetsuit care and storage.

Booties

For cold winter sessions and rocky or reef-prone entry points. Split-toe for more grip and feel; round-toe for more warmth. Browse surfing booties.

Hoods

The single biggest source of heat loss when surfing cold water is the neck and head. A hood eliminates that. Browse wetsuit hoods.

Gloves

For the coldest LA winter mornings when hand numbness affects your paddling and surfing. Browse wetsuit gloves.

The WetChute

A nylon sleeve that makes getting a wetsuit on fast and easy — neoprene slides over the nylon rather than gripping skin. Especially useful for kids who can then get themselves in and out of their wetsuit independently. Available in store at Rider Shack.

Wetsuit care

Rinse after every session. Hang inside-out on a wide hanger. Clean regularly with wetsuit cleaner. Repair small tears immediately. Browse wetsuit care, hangers, and repair.
