Wetsuit Ankle Flushing
Remember reading that a few holes [ 6] punched thru the calf area with a very hot knitting needle....pushed thru from the inside ..so that it burns/seals the rubber and nylon lining as it goes thru.
Hi Thommo84, I get the same thing happening, same brand.
What do you think is causing it?
"Remember reading that a few holes [ 6] punched thru the calf area with a very hot knitting needle" - I've read the same thing udo, but I wonder how the water can escape if the legs are under water a lot while sitting and even paddling? I've only ever seen the holes up high around the zipless entry point.
Take them up so that they stop just above the ankle.
Bought a Vissla the other week and I've noticed I get quite a bit of flushing up the ankles and the dreaded 'elephant legs'. What's the best way to prevent this? velcro straps? Holes in the calves?
