FAQs

What is the main difference between the X-Flex upper and D-Flex lower panels?

The X-Flex upper material provides maximum stretch (150%) for unrestricted movement during paddling and swimming, while the D-Flex lower panels are more durable and abrasion-resistant, designed for long-term wear and tear.

Is this wetsuit suitable for cold water?

The wetsuit provides warmth with its 'True Thickness' foam and natural rubber construction, making it suitable for a range of temperatures. For very cold water conditions, layering or a thicker wetsuit might be necessary.

How do I ensure I buy the correct size?

Refer to the Gul size chart provided by the retailer. Accurately measure your chest, waist, and inseam, and compare these measurements to the chart. Trying on the suit if possible is always recommended.

Can I machine wash my wetsuit?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the delicate materials and neoprene. Always hand wash with cool freshwater and mild soap or wetsuit shampoo.

What does FSC(r)-certified natural rubber mean?

It means the natural rubber used in the wetsuit comes from forests managed in an environmentally responsible, socially beneficial, and economically viable manner, certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC).

How durable are the knee pads?

The PowerTex4 knee pads are designed to offer extra protection and durability in high-wear areas, helping to prevent abrasion during activities that involve kneeling.

Troubleshooting

Wetsuit is difficult to put on.

Ensure the wetsuit is completely dry. Use a thin layer of water or wetsuit-friendly lubricant on your skin if needed. Avoid forcing the suit, which can damage seams.

Water flushing through the neck area.

Adjust the Pro GlideSkin collar for a tighter, more secure fit. Ensure the zipper is fully closed and the cord is tucked away properly. Check for any tears or damage around the collar.

Zipper is stiff or corroded.

Rinse the zipper thoroughly with freshwater after each use. Apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (specifically designed for wetsuits or plastics) to help it slide smoothly. Ensure the PK stainless steel zipper is kept clean.

Material feels stiff after drying.

This can be normal for natural rubber. Ensure it is fully dry and then try flexing the material gently. Avoid prolonged direct sun drying, which can make materials brittle.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: The Gul RESPONSE 32 FL NATUR STEAMER is ready to wear out of the package. Ensure you have selected the correct size by consulting the Gul size chart and measuring yourself accurately. The back-zip entry is operated by holding the cord attached to the zipper pull and sliding it upwards. The Pro GlideSkin collar may require slight adjustment for a snug, comfortable fit.

Compatibility: This wetsuit is designed for a range of water sports including surfing, swimming, paddleboarding, and general watersports. It is compatible with most standard wetsuit accessories like booties and gloves.

Care:

  1. Rinse Thoroughly: After each use, rinse the wetsuit inside and out with clean, cool freshwater. This removes salt, chlorine, and sand which can degrade the materials.
  2. Wash Occasionally: If needed, wash with a specialized wetsuit shampoo or mild, non-detergent soap in cool water. Avoid harsh detergents, bleaches, or fabric softeners.
  3. Dry Properly: Hang the wetsuit to dry on a wide, padded hanger away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Never put it in a tumble dryer or iron it. Ensure it is completely dry before storing.
  4. Store Correctly: Store the wetsuit loosely folded or hanging in a cool, dry place. Avoid storing it in direct sunlight or cramped spaces where it can crease badly.
