RYANBUELL
The Beginning...
“JUNIOR LIFEGUARDSand HIGH SCHOOL SURF TEAM”
In the 80’s in Santa Cruz, California, life was pretty “Rad”. Without the distraction of video games, Internet and social media, life was happening at baseball diamonds, the Boardwalk and the beach. Buell wetsuit founder and namesake Ryan Buell was one of the lucky few to be in the right place at the right time. At eight years old Ryan got his start riding waves on a soft top out in front of the Casino by the Boardwalk. After surfing all day with his buddies a love affair with the ocean had begun. The Waterman...
“JAY MORIARITYPADDLE RACE WINNER”
The Santa Cruz City Junior Lifeguard program was where the passion to become an all around waterman grew. Monday through Friday all summer he and hundreds of kids would learn the skills needed to be strong swimmers and capable of saving lives if necessary. Taking this training seriously, Ryan quickly became one of the standouts in Junior Guard competitions. After years of training and competing, Ryan secured a spot as a Lifeguard on Main Beach in Santa Cruz. Years of saving lives and winning paddle competitions would follow. With a long resume of victories in Paddle Races and Beach Flags all over the world, his two proudest moments were being crowned the only non New Zealander to win the Auckland Regional Championship and winning the first ever Jay Moriarity Memorial Paddleboard Race. The Wetsuit Designer...
“TRANSWORLD SURFWORLDS BEST WETSUIT”
1997 was the year Ryan started working at Hotline Wetsuits. Within six months he was the head of production. Soon after he began designing suits. When team riders, Shawn “Barney” Barron and Darryl “Flea” Virostko asked for suits that stood out in a crowd, Ryan answered with some of the wetsuit industries most outrageous designs of all time. Taking his inspiration from comic book heros such as “Spider-Man” and “Aquaman” Ryan created the most innovative wetsuits ever seen. While Barney and Flea were pushing surfing to the limits in the water, Ryan was taking wetsuits to the next level. Not only was he changing the look of wetsuits he was also re-imagining their function. Inspired by a bathrobe one evening in a hotel room, Ryan drew-up the first overlapping upper entry. Not long after he conjured up the one sided “slant zip” entry. Years later, both designs are standard in most brands high end wetsuits. After years of dedication at Hotline it was time for Buell Wetsuits to take flight. Buell Wetsuits and Surf...

“ICONIC BRANDSand Nike”
CARISSA MOORE
“2 WORLD CHAMPSADRIANO DESOUZA”
Ryan, now a husband and father, envisioned a wetsuit brand unlike the rest. The plan was simple, make the best suits in the world and sell them to a few select surfers. A grass roots plan to create demand. Designing and fabricating prototypes in his garage, then flying overseas to manage production, Ryan’s vision was coming to life. Soon Buell began making custom designs for surf industry leaders including; Volcom, Nike, Fox, and Oakley. During this time he had the opportunity to work with many of the world’s top surfers, such as World Champions Carissa Moore and Adriano DeSouza. Others included Bruce Irons, Dusty Payne, Mitch Colburn, Kai Otten, Nat Young, Bede Durbidge, Dean Morrison, Coco Ho and even Jennifer Lawrence while designing wetsuit outfits for the Blockbuster Movie “Hunger Games Catching Fire”.
“THE BEST ISYET TO COME”
He says his best is yet to come and that he’s just peaking now. During recent trips to Cabo SanLucas, Mexico, he surfed with the team, helped sign last years Rookie of the Year, Keely Andrew, helped scout one of Mexicos finest in finding Martin Olea, surfed with his family, hung out with the wild boys, led by Luke Rockhold, did an air at shiprecks, shadow boxed with Oscar DeLahoya, designed a new poncho with his mom and even rescued a flailing couple sure to peril in the swift moving waters of cerritos. Ryan, along with Brand Manager and Air show legend Matt Rockhold are currently putting the finishing touches on next years super drop, the introduction of the new RB3 zip free model suit.

wetsuit FEATURES TE C H GUI D E
NINJA NEOPRENE ”V-FOAM” Ninja Neoprene is the lightest, stretchiest and softest neoprene material in the water. With roughly 30% less water absorption, it also dries quicker than most other wetsuit materials. The limestone based V-Foam is also less impactful on the environment than other petroleum based neoprenes.
QUADRUPLE GLUED SEAMS WITH “SIZZLE SEAL” The ultra-thin seam seal on the exterior of our suits is super stretchy and elastic giving it a similar range of motion as our gummy “Ninja Neoprene”. We apply the “Sizzle Seal” glue to the exterior of our glued and blindstitched seams so it completely seals out water without limiting the suits’ flexibility and makes our seams more durable.
SUPRATEX KNEE PADS Soft and comfortable Kevlar-like kneepads are tough on the outside but soft and stretchy on the inside.
ENTRY SYSTEM Over the Top or Slant Zip chest entry, utilizes a cross-over pattern and snap tight outer flap technology, making the entry a tight seal.

NINJA BOOTIES: Buell Surf Ninja Boots feature an internal split-toe design, meaning the big toe is not separate from the rest of the boot so you won’t have to worry about your leash getting caught between your toes.

NINJA BOOT FEATURES: • Ninja Boot Features: • Internal Split Toe design • Ultra-Soft sole • Rubber toe and heel caps • Ankle Stabilizer • EZ on ankle pull
