NEWS: THE BILLABONG’S FURNACE COMP VOTED WETSUIT OF THE YEAR BY STABMAG!

Following a test of 38 neoprene items from all brands, the surf magazine Stab elected the Billabong Furnace Comp as the best wetsuit of the year 2023!

A model that is part of the range of neoprene wetsuits that we have selected for you at the GONG Space Center. The test criteria that distinguished the Furnace Comp model from the famous Australian brand were:

• Comfort on the water with the flexibility of the wetsuit and comfort on land by testing the ease of entry of the wetsuit in the state that all surfers fear, that is to say when it is still wet. In addition to the dreaded feeling of cold, a wet suit will be less easy to put on. A test in which the Billabong Furnace also stood out. A key quality for the durability of your wetsuit because the less you have to pull on it to put it on, the less you will damage its fabric.

• The effectiveness of the wetsuit was judged by its ability to keep you warm and a general impression score. In the end, what matters most for a wetsuit is allowing you to go into the water without worrying about the temperature and to stay there for a long time to take advantage of the conditions. The Billabong Furnace has demonstrated its effectiveness in water among the Stab testers, in particular thanks to its innovations such as the use of graphene which optimizes lightness, resistance and flexibility.
