Women Wetsuit Amaze Select 5/4 Back Zip
Premium materials for superior warmth and epic stretch

Graphene is an impossibly light, strong and heat-conducting material. ION integrated this revolutionary material into it's new inner lining – with the highest concentration you'll find in any wetsuit on the market. The result is up to 20% more warmth compared to ION's Plasma_Plush 2.0 lining. Also, Graphene_Plush guarantees incredible drying times for your wetsuit, making sure it's always nice and comfy.
Max_Flex is our latest innovation in flexibility and stretch. The unique rhombus-shaped structure of this lining material allows it to be more flexible. Further does the material itself not soak up water but redistributes it on the surface thru small channels. This increases the evaporation of water and reduces drying time.
Hot_Stuff 2.0 lining comes with a plushier feel due to larger loops that trap more air for heat insulation. It is the stretchiest thermo lining in ION's entire range.
Ultra slim outside sealing technology for a long lasting life span providing freedom of movement and comfort wrapped in a smart package. The Power_Seams adding a special touch and unique look to all ION Select models.
Highly elastic neoprene tape reinforces the seams on the lower body and commonly stressed cuff area from the inside.
Seam-free shoulder design for increased paddle reach and shoulder rotation.
All stress points are reinforced and secured by melco tape from the inside to ensure a longer lifespan of the seams.
Embossed sleeve and leg ends for a sleeker and more durable finish.
Less material at the knee bends increases the freedom of movement when bending them.
Less material at the crook of the arm increases the freedom of movement when bending the arm.
Extra panel on the inside that seals off the back zipper and acts as a barrier preventing water from rushing into the wetsuit.
Again, this feature prevents water from rushing into the wetsuit by sealing off the cuffs and collar thanks to small rubber strips on the inside.
Quick water release when needed in order to combat water accumulation inside the wetsuit. The Drain_Holes are secured in place from the inside and won't expand.
Velcro patch to offer the option of attaching the Leg_loops. The loops can be wrapped tightly around the ankle to prevent water from rushing into the suit. To avoid losing the Leg_Loops when you're in the water, they feature a unique, extra-strong velcro construction.
A small webbing loop on the neck of wetsuits and tops to attach the safety line of ION sunglasses.
The extra padding on the shins provides improved protection from impact.
I_Foam is an extreme lightweight and stretchy neoprene foam. For this season we upgraded I_foam with Oyster shell powder, replacing Limestone. This upgrade makes our I_foam more sustainable while maintaining its superior characteristics. Thanks to the foamed structure with more air trapped inside and a lower density I_foam contributes to heat insulation and better flexibility.

Ion's next-level materials are extra flexible, incredibly comfortable, and dry super fast. All in all, I'm super impressed, and after a few years break from wearing Ion suits and stubborn avoidance of back zips and 5/4s - yes, even to the point of riding cold rather than riding stiff - the new Ion Amaze Select has swayed my opinion. I think it's about time I add one of these to my kit!
It’s great to see so much tech piled into a back zip suit, as let’s face it sometimes a front zip doesn’t fit all body types, and they can prove tricky to get in and out of. In one of the more detailed builds we’ve seen in a back zip suit for some time, ION have produced a very warm, solid suit with a fantastic amount of stretch, giving you more mobility and water time in the darker months. The impressive level of stretch also augments well to the variable female form, and is going to suit a massive range of body shapes.
