The fastest drying wetsuit in the Rip Curl line
The Rip Curl Flashbomb 4/3mm Chest Zip Fullsuit is part of the elite Flashbomb series, built around Rip Curl's pinnacle wetsuit technology. Surfers searching for a Flashbomb 4/3 or an e bomb style suit land on this fullsuit for its combination of warmth and a chest zip entry.
What makes the Flashbomb technology work
This suit uses E7 and E6 flash lining neoprene for cold water insulation, paired with an innovative FlashDry lining that Rip Curl states dries in 30 minutes or less, making this the world's fastest drying wetsuit in their lineup. E7 flash lining tape and sealed cuffs keep the suit water tight, and durable mesh skin panels are added for longevity in high wear zones.

Who this fullsuit is for
A 4/3mm chest zip fullsuit like this suits surfers facing cooler water temperatures who need real warmth without giving up flexibility for paddling and turning. The external key pocket is a practical touch for anyone driving themselves to the beach who does not want to leave a key in a car door handle or hide it under a rock. The chest zip design is generally chosen over a back zip for a more secure, flexible fit through the shoulders.
How to wear and care for it
Rinse the suit in fresh water after every session, since salt left in the neoprene and mesh skin panels accelerates wear on both the flash lining tape and the sealed cuffs. Because the FlashDry lining is built to dry quickly, it is well suited to back to back sessions in the same day, but it should still be hung to dry away from direct sun to protect the neoprene and the mesh panels long term.
