How You Can Benefit From A Surf Rashguard

By Lila Barry


A surf rashguard is necessary for all surfers because without this you are going to develop a rash on your arms and under this area as well. If you out for a short surf, then it may not be necessary. Some people have padding on their boards, but it is not as effective. These can be replaced by wetsuits, but this is not always realistic.

There are divers who wear this over their wetsuit as well as snorkelers. You get these vests in different qualities. Some are thinner than others. Surfers in warmer waters will only need a very thin vest, where as someone in an ocean where it is much colder will where something that is thicker. However, someone like this maybe sufficient with just a wetsuit.

You will see surfers in heats in surfing competitions wearing these, either over their wetsuits or as an extra. This is necessary because it allows everyone to identify to them. Judges and commentators will identify the surfer by the color of the vest. They often don't mention the name of the surfer if they are talking very fast.

These come in all sorts of colors, but for those who have been surfing for a while, they prefer to go for a darker color like black. Parents like to get their kids a neon color like yellow or pink so they don't lose sight of them. It can be scary to see your little one disappear under a wave, so you need something to identify them.

It will also be nice for a school if they have designed these vests in a special way. This is a nice way of branding the school. They could have their logo on the front as well as on the back. This is a great way of advertising the surf school, and others in the water may start to ask questions an even head over and book a couple of lessons for the family.

Surf shops also sell something especially custom designed with their logo on the back. It is better to have the main logo on the back because surfers have their backs exposed most of the time. These vests could be sold a lot cheaper than the others. However, it doesn't mean that the quality should be that much inferior.

The cost does come into play, like everything else. Surfing is not an expensive sport. However, initially you may find that expenses do add up. Once you have got the board and the wetsuit, you will find that things will settle down. You won't need one of these vests too often, but some surfers get a couple of them.

Some people will only buy famous brands, but then you get people who will feel that these should only be worn by the pro surfers. You have to decide for yourself what kind of surf rashguard you are looking for, and this depends on a number of factors. Some are thinner than others, and this depends on how often you surf because they will get worn out quicker. Some are short sleeved and some come with a longer sleeve.
