Sustainability

Eco friendly?

Sounds great, right? But what exactly is ecofriendly??? Quite frankly speaking, we were asking that our selves, too and it is not a question that you answer in one quick discussion and then you’re done with it. actually before you can give answers to that topic you need to ask a lot of questions ... and that’s what we did.

What is IoN doing to be eco-friendly? What do we feel is important and how should we do it?

Where does it start and where does it end? can we afford being eco-friendly? can a Neoprene wetsuit which is largely made of synthetic ingredients and chemical substances even be eco-friendly at all?

Attitude there are many different opinions and aspects to the definition of eco friendliness. among all these controversial positions we found that one thing seemed to stick out: for us it has to do with some sort of basic attitude – a mindset that goes beyond doing something because everybody does it or because you have to do it.

It is rather something you want to do because you are deeply convinced that it is essential in a global perspective. to us this attitude must be the fundamental awareness integrated in the corporate culture of our brand.

So we did some research to get comprehensive knowledge on this issue because IoN takes on responsibility to treat our environment with respect by using eco friendly materials and production methods as much as possible.

It is important to start somewhere and keep learning to improve on the way.

Environmental design and technology is largely reliant on producing sustainable products. avoiding waste in the first place is better than dealing with it after things are thrown away. So not only in that sense it is our strong believe that a premium technical product built on the highest quality level possible will always pay off on the long run, because it simply lasts longer before you dump it. this may cost a bit more in the beginning, but at the end of the day it is very much about our concern to make the greatest product possible - we simply can’t afford bad products.

Limestone Neoprene for years all IoN Neoprene products like wetsuits, neo tops and other neo accessories are made of highly elastic certified limestone Neoprene from Japan. that means the raw materials (polychloroprene chips) are made of calcium carbite which is converted from limestone (calcium carbonate) instead of using Neoprene derived from petrolium oil like in the past. also, even though this production method uses a lot of energy in the electric arc furnaces where the limestone is processed, this energy derives from hydropower. hydropower produces essentially no carbon dioxide or other harmful emissions, in contrast to burning fossil fuels, which significantly contributes to global warming through co 2.

Recycling It involves the incorporating of used materials into a new product cycle to prevent waste of potentially useful materials, reduce the consumption of fresh raw materials, reduce energy usage and pollution. Recycling is a key component of modern waste reduction and is the third partof the Reduce, Reuse, Recycle waste hierarchy model ( the 3-Rs). IoN started out using fully recycled material for the Riot and trinity Series last season and now continues extending it to the all new premium wetsuit lines onyx Voltage and Quantum Xeno series. It is a highly elastic and warm jersey completely made of recycled Polyester ( for example PEt bottles, fishing nets, etc.).

Re-thinking

Some experts have recently incorporated a fourth „R“ into the concept of waste reduction: Re-think. We really do like the idea of questioning the status quo – it is a fundamental way of finding new perspectives and solutions. and that’s why we are also re-thinking the eco issue – maybe a small start, but there are many ideas in our mind and you gotta start somewhere to make a change in the future … So let’s think about it and find new oportunities!

Life Cycle Evaluating the eco-balance of products means you get a better idea of the environmental impacts caused by its existence. only by looking at the whole process from the very beginning to the end in the life cycle of a product makes you fully understand all effects on our earth.

, So let s think about it!

contour_cut

double ouble layer collar construction for perfect water sealing and improved wearing comfort construcconstruc tion. the he super smooth inside layer of Glide_Skin Neoprene wrapped around the neck avoids skin irritations and water intrusion. Slightly lower collar height and a less bulky neck construction improves the freedom of movement and comfort.

In order to improve mobility and comfort, all IoN wetsuits come with a contour cut. It enhances the flexibility in the collar, wrist, ellbow, instep and the hollow of the kneet. seam_reinforcements all crucial stress points are reinforced either with Melco_Tape on the inside seams or rubber logo patches on the outside to prevent ripping. crash_Padz additional Neoprene pads which protect sensitive body areas like the shins, ribs, crotch, hips, tail bone, etc. against pressure and impact injuries when crashing hard. Each Crash_Padz consists of a specialized higher density K_Type Neoprene foam to absorb the impact force. seal_tite (Wrist) Improved UV-resistant S_Seal stripes on wrist and ankle avoid water rushing into your arms. crotch_Protection all IoN wetsuits are equipped with a double lined crotch panel, to avoid abrasion from leg straps of seat harnesses. to improve protection due to windchill while keeping the flexibility in the crotch area a special hexagon coating is applied. tatex_Protectors highly abrasion resistant protection printings on the knee panels. flex zones allow outstanding freedom of movement.

Key_looP Elastic safety loop to store a key hidden in a pocket (please only use water resistant keys)

drain_holes all wetsuits with Water_Gate batwing panels have little holes on the lower back part. Water which enters through the back zipper can leak out easily and keep the back area dry. these Drain_Holes are also placed in the calves which prevent the water from getting stuck in the legs like a bubble.

Velcro_leG looP all long-leg IoN wetsuits are provided with detachable Velcro_Leg_Loops (or an integrated Velcro closure on the legs on Quantum Series). this loop can be wrapped tight around the ankle to increase waterproofness and prevent water from rushing in from heavy spray of the board edge. of course the Velcro Loop can also be removed easily by hand if not needed.

BRAND BOOK — SP R I N G /SU M M E R 2 0 1 3

waTer gaTe Water_Gate_Plus all IoN semidry wetsuits with long arms / long legs are equipped with a Water_ Gate_Plus batwing panel on the inside of the back behind the zipper. It works like a water barrier to keep out the water which soaks through the back zipper. to improve the waterproofness even more, all IoN batwings (except capture) have an additional cuff extension like a collar worn over the head. on top of that the glued blind-stitched seam is covered with an extra Neoprene tape sealing to keep you dry and warm on the inside.

Gate_KeePer problem: when you put on a wetsuit with batwing construction just by yourself, the Water_Gate back panel tends to roll up inside and makes it hard to grab it without help. solution: a red color Velcro patch on the upper part of the batwing makes it possible to fix the batwing on the neck closure. this prevents the Water_Gate back panel from rolling up inside and helps you grabbing it without the help of an assisting buddy.

Velcro closUre Velcro_fix (anKle)

Velcro_fix (necK)

problem: getting in and out of a wetsuit can be a hassle sometimes, because the velcro closure on the ankle never stays open by itself, when you try to slide your foot through the leg opening. solution: a smart little Velcro patch on the outside of the closure flap can quickly be fixed on the shin and keeps the leg open for easy entry or exit.

problem: IoN uses the strongest Velcro type available for secure lock of all closures. the disadvantage is that the inside jersey on the collar might get damaged by the neck Velcro closure. solution: there is a small Velcro Plush patch on the neck Velcro flap so that it can easily be folded and fixed on the inside of the collar. this avoids damage on the wetsuit jerseys when it is not in use.

N E O P R E N E TECH N O L O GY ZIPPER Dry_ZiP Premium brand TIZIP Master_Seal zipper prevents water leaking and makes the Fuse Drysuit highly waterproof for above-watersports like kiting, windsurfing, surfing, SUP etc. This V ISLON quality tooth construction provides a smooth low-friction gliding zipper for easy closing and opening and keeps out the water effectively. It is also much more flexible and needs less lubrication than other zipper types.

P_ZIP p_zip

The ultimate answer to a full bladder in a drysuit when it’s f*** freezing outside … This unrestricting TIZIP Master_Seal zipper (same quality as on the back) provides the crucial feature for a long day on the water. The easy pull zipper tap can be stored hidden inside the opening above so noone will even notice it’s there.

FRONT_ROW front_row

The all new Onyx and Onyx Voltage Series is equipped with a horizontal front zipper instead of the traditional vertical back zipper.

Even though it takes a bit more time getting in and out it provides unmatched flexibility and freedom of movement especially in the back – Surfers love it!

FUSE CUFFS Latex_Cuff ION only uses super flexible SeamTite Latex_Cuffs by premium brand S P EC I A L I S ED L ATE X for our Fuse Drysuit on the neck, wrists and ankles to prevent water leaking into the dry suit.

GLOVES & BOOTIES Gecko_Grip gecko_grip

Ever watched a gecko running up and down the walls? Then you know inspiration for our new Neo Glove palm construction: A very thin layer of Tatex Neoprene with a full cover palm embossing in circular ribbed shape provides awesome grip on the wet surface of a boom or kite bar.

Dual_Seal dual_seal

FLEX_CONTROL flex_control

A specific modification in the panel construction can result in a better performance of the product. On our Neoprene Socks for example a striped Flex_Control print on the instep provides better stance and stability by reducing the stretch in this area. By adding a DL flex panel on the arm sleeves (e.g.

Quantum Series) the elasticity of a skin suit can be improved where it is most needed.

Donut_CufF donut_cuff

Additional layer of Tatex_Glue applied on GBL seams (e.g.

Neo gloves and Neo Socks) makes them highly waterproof and tearing resistant. A highly complex process which is only applied to the most premium products.

A unique construction to make a glove or a boot more water resistant. The Donut_Cuff seal is made of one piece of Neoprene with Glide_Skin on the inside which provides a slick sealing surface.

PANDA_PAW

Tatex_Glue tatex_glue

A new double layer cuff construction e.g. on Neoprene gloves, boots and hood which improves the water sealing significantly. One layer goes inside and the other on top of the suit for perfect water tighness.

panda_paw

A unique rubber patch construction on the new Neo Socks which provides both abrasion resistance and protection as well as grip and pure barfoot feeling.

N eO p R e N e mAteRIAls neoprene in general sKin (mesh) neoPrene If you find mostly bare Black Neoprene on the outside it is called a skin Neoprene (or single lined) suit. Because the Neoprene foam itself is very soft and vulnerable to rip, normally the Neoprene is enhanced by an surface embossing (normally a fine mesh structure) to improve robustness and tearing strength. It makes the surface more dense, but obviously also reduces the stretch properties. although the advantage compared to double lined neoprene is less evaporative heat loss on a wet suit by the wind-chillfactor.

.

SKIN

surFace emBOssiNG sur NeOPreNe FOam iNsiDe ThermO Jersey

double lined (dl) neoPrene the other catagory of wetsuits is called double lined. Instead of using skin Neoprene on the outside there is a jersey which is laminated on the Neoprene. It protects the Neoprene foam against ripping and makes it more robust than skin Neoprene. Normally it is also more elastic compared to skin Neoprene as it is not embossed on the surface. the downside though is a higher evaporative heat loss when the wet jersey surface is exposed to wind-chill-factor. But for some people the style factor by adding color and nice graphics to a wetsuit becomes more and more important.

New!

technical Neoprene type with lots of punched holes similar to a perforated steel plate. Works great to improve breathablility, ventilation, water drainage, etc. depending on the specific purpose, the holes are smaller or bigger diameter.

inside Jersey all IoN wetsuits have a jersey lining laminated on the inside for more convenience when putting on and taking off the suit, as well as to enhance wearing comfort and thermal insulation on the naked skin. It is important to understand that the Neoprene foam itself is very soft and elastic to begin with. the stretch of suit is far more influenced by the fact that it is a skin or double lined suit plus the specific choice of jersey.

for years all IoN Neoprene products like wetsuits, neo tops and other neo accessories are made of highly elastic certified limestone Neoprene from Japan. that means the raw materials (polychloroprene chips) are made of calcium carbite which is converted from limestone (calcium carbonate) instead of using Neoprene derived from petrolium oil like in the past. also, even though this production method uses a lot of energy in the electric arc furnaces where the limestone is processed, this energy derives from hydropower. hydropower produces essentially no carbon dioxide or other harmful emissions, in contrast to burning fossil fuels, which significantly contributes to global warming through co 2.

Great for wearing as a functional first layer underwear inside a drysuit or for any other sport such as snowboarding, biking, running etc.

highly complex and costly refinement process also called M_Tex for skin Neoprene or dL. first a unique allover design is embossed into a fine 210den Nylon fabric with a metal roller tool. then this customized fabric is pressed onto open cell Neoprene slabs with heat and pressure over a specified period of time. the result is a robust, but yet soft and elastic skin Neoprene panel with a bespoke surface design which makes an IoN suit so unique and special. M_Tex can also be applied to double lined Neoprene as a subtle design feature.

Printing process with a metal roller also called all-over-Printing (aoP). a repeating design pattern is engraved into a roller tool and then printed onto a jersey. the thin liquid ink sucks into the fabric surface and has a nice subtle visual effect.

sublimation_PrintinG sublimation_print

complex color printing method for Polyester fabrics also known as dye-Sublimation or Paper-transfer-Printing. the design artwork is initially printed on special paper and then transferred onto the fabric by a heated roller or placement tool. In comparison to other methods Sublimation allows bright and precise multicolor designs. the downside are higher printing costs and lower robustness of the Polyester fabric.

Water_rePellent

New!

Impressive new water-repellent outside fabric for outstanding light weight and warmth. hydrophobic treatment reduces water absorbtion and means less evaporative heat loss on body surface.

N eO p R e N e techN OlO gy glUed Blind-sTiTch (gBs) seams aPPlication this seam technology is most commonly used for thicker wetsuits from approx. this seam technology is most commonly used for thicker wetsuits fpr approx. 3–6 mm thick Neoprene which require best waterresistance.

GlueinG the edges of the Neoprene panels are covered with a highly adhesive, UV resistant contact glue which needs to dry for a few minutes. then the glue is applied a second time to make it more sticky. assemblinG Now the corresponding edges of the Neoprene panels are put together by hand and then firmly squeezed with an electric pressing tool cm by cm to achieve the high tearing strength. seWinG after glueing, the seams are stitched on one side with a special blind-stitch sewing machine. a curved needle pokes through the neoprene layer (without actually poking through the Neoprene to the other side) and applies an elastic seam. If you can see the stitching only on one side of the seam then it is a glued bind-stitch seam.

Pros By using this technique, the blind seam is highly tear proof, elastic and very much waterresistant to provide insulation and comfort. cons this manufacturing process is extremely complex and timeconsuming, and therefore very expensive.

flaT-sTiTch (fs) seams aPPlication this seam (also called flat Lock) is commonly used for thinner wetsuits, rashguards and accessories with a neoprene thickness of up to max. 2–3 mm that does not require watertight seams. assemblinG the two pieces of neoprene panels are aligned along the edges, and overlap each other approx. 5 mm when they run through the flat lock sewing machine. seWinG In contrast to the glued blind-stitch seam, the needle punctures through the neoprene layers to the other side, so that the flat stitch seam thread is visible on both sides of the seam.

Pros It’s much faster and less complex to produce a flat stitch wetsuit compared to GBL as there is no glueing process involved. Nevertheless it’s very strong and emphasizes the look of the panel layout. cons Not completely waterproof, so it is not suitable when warmth is obligatory.

PR ODU C T INFO R MATION — Style - L ogo To help you finding the perfect suit for you every ION wetsuit is clearly marked with a ”Style-Logo“ on the neck and on the left arm for easy access in the shop. It provides information about wetsuit name, style and neoprene thickness.

For example: Strike Semidry DL 5,5mm or Quantum Steamer SS 3/2mm.

— SH O RTC UT S If necessary short sleeve styles are marked with ”SS“ or ”LS“ if it is a long sleeve overknee suit for example.

Fully double lined styles are indicated by ”DL“ to differentiate them from the skin neoprene suits.

— T HICKN ES S The neoprene thickness of each suit varies in each panel depending on the specific purpose and material properties. In other words it is a combination of thicker and thinner panels and no suit is just simply made in one single thickness of Neoprene.

The torso / chest area needs the highest thickness for best heat retentention compared to the thinner arms where freedom of movement and elasticity is more important. That means for example on an Onyx Voltage Semidry 5/4 mm the torso panels will be 5,0 mm thick and in the extremities less thickness is needed.

Of course the same general principle can be applied to all other suits such as an Element Semidry DL 5,5 mm, even though the thickness of thinner panels are not mentioned extra to keep the name short.

— W h AT IS ThE c O Nc Ep T O F Th E IO N FU SE DrYSU IT ? high end premium drysuit suitable for above water sports such as kiting, windsurfing, wakeboarding, surfing, SUP, etc.

Ground breaking pioneer technology invented by IoN with improved panel layout, P_Zip and Detachable_Hood. the clever synergy between a conventional snug fit Neoprene suit and the baggy style nylon fabric drysuits makes this unique concept probably the warmest suit you have ever worn.

Suddenly your season on the water has 12 months – try it before you judge! Upper price range.

Read why!

— W h AT’S SO G O O D A B O U T ThE NE W FU SE DrYSU IT ?

Warm: the 4,0-3,0mm thick loose-fit neoprene shell serves for best heat retention possible in extremely icy conditions. Much less extra thermal underwear is needed!

Elastic: flexible Neoprene construction allows awesome wearing comfort and less bulky fit which prevents restriction of movement especially for hardcore tricks and swimming.

Dry: highly waterproof due to new premium TIZIP ® Master_Seal dryzipper, improved highly elastic SEAMTITE ® bottleneck Latex cuffs and fully glued blind-stitched seams with additional seam tapes.

Safe: as Neoprene supports floatation on the water, it helps you not to drown in an emergency situation. Even if there is a small water leakage in the suit the Neoprene

shell still provides some thermal insulation to save you. Please also read safety instructions carefully at the end of this manual!

— W h Y IS ThE FUS E MAD E OF NE O p rEN E? Basically two reasons: first of all because Neoprene has superior heat retention properties compared to Nylon fabric. Second reason is the outstanding flexibility of Neoprene! Nylon does not stretch and therefore restricts the freedom of movement. our FUSE DRYSUIT fits less bulky than a baggy Nylon suit, but more loose fit compared to a conventional snug-fit Neoprene wetsuit. therefore you feel completely unrestricted in any way. dressing up is super convenient and actually it feels much more like wearing a comfortable overall rather than a tight wetsuit!

— IS ThE FUS E rEALLY S O MU c h WAr MEr? yes, you bet! In combiniantion with our new IoN functional quick-drying underwear the FUSE DRYSUIT will probably be the warmest suit you will ever wear in your life.

We found out that wearing the FUSE, your body saves so much extra heat for the extremities, that you will feel surprisingly warm in your hands, feet and head. No more deep-frozen fingers barely able to grab anything like a bar or boom and feeling nothing but pain. also, compare the FUSE with a Nylon suit when you are actually swimming in freezing cold water for a while. the thick layer of 4,0 mm Neoprene insulation always keeps the water in a save distance to your skin to reduce heat loss by convection. Now compare it to the thin layer of Nylon and you understand why you instandly feel the cold creeping into your body!

— IS IT rEALLY D rY ? yes, but you cannot expect the same as from a diving drysuit for example, even though it is a very similar construction. We use the same SEAMTITE ® bottleneck latex cuffs and all seams are glued blind-stitched and have additional 10 meters seam tape for water sealing. the double lined Supra_Tex and D_Fence Nylon

jersey protects you against rips.

In case of leakage, Neoprene still provides some thermal insulation and can be repaired easily.

So providing you grease and close the zipper properly, the FUSE is mostly dry. only when staying in water for a longer time for example a bit of moisture might soak through due to the permanent movement and capillar action especially on the ankle cuffs. this is nothing unusual and normally not a real problem on the water. It can be improved if the Latex cuffs really are tight and by applying some silicone-based grease or similar onto the skin area of the cuffs.

— WhAT D O I WEAr UN D Er A D rYS UIT? always wear functional firstlayer underwear such as our new ION Quickdry_Underwear tops and pants made of quick drying antibacterial double-layer-Polyester.

Even though you will always sweat it will keep your skin feel pretty dry and comfortable because the sweat gets drawn away from the skin surface. additional thermal fleece garment provides extra warmth if needed. avoid naked skin or cotton underwear, because it only sucks up the sweat and makes your skin freeze.

— WhY IS Th E FUS E D rYS UIT A BIT hEAV IEr T hAN N YLON D rYS UITS ? yes, of course the FUSE is heavier than a Nylon suit …

BUt: thatvs because it is completely made of highly insulating Neoprene, so do not compare apples with pears. It also includes useful pockets and a smart detachable hood. But this new concept offers so much more warmth in comparison, which a conventional Nylon suit never can achieve.

Remember, the thin Nylon shell basically does not provide any heat retention – you always have to wear very thick thermo insulation underneath (plus a hood) to keep you warm at all. add it all up and you find out, all the stuff is not much lighter and you are still freezing. also do not judge the weight only by holding it up with your arm!

Before you make your judgement, please try it on and you’ll find out, it does not feel heavy at all once

BRAND BOOK — SP R I N G /SU M M E R 2 0 1 3

you wear it – even on the water when it is wet! ask your buddy who has own experience!

— WhY S hO UL D I p UT G r E A S E ON T hE D rY Z I p p Er ?

Even though the new TIZIP ® Master_Seal dryzipper doesn’t necessarily need it anymore, lubrication improves proper coupling of the chain when opening or closing the zipper and keeps it tight! It makes it slide much easier all the way to the end of the zipper-garage and prevents the zipper-chains from snapping apart.

So invest a few seconds before using the drysuit and take the little grease tube delivered with the drysuit (or any other acid free grease or oil) to lubricate the zipper properly. Just think of other situations in life, where lubrication can be essential for success …

— WhAT cAN I D O I N cA S E T h E Z I ppE r D I D c O ME A pA rT ?

Well, normally this can only happen, when the zipper was not greased properly or abused in a way it shouldn’t. always use lubrication and do not apply too much force or pull it in a wrong direction! always let someone help you closing and opening the zipper smoothly along the line, then you are fine!

If it does snap apart though, do not freak out – usually the zipper can be fully fixed with moderate force as it is descibed on the TIZIP ® zipper manual or on their website www.tizip.com!

We intentionally did not put a zipperpull webbing on the zipper tab to encourage you not to close the zipper by yourself without help – TIZIP ® will not accept warranties for broken zippers otherwise.

— hOW DO I US E T h E L AT E X c U F F S? our SEAMTITE ® bottleneck latex cuffs on the neck, wrists and feet are highly elastic seals to prevent any water to leak in. they are very thin and sensitive, so treat them with care! When sliding through the cuffs, avoid sharp fingernails and exessive force. first slide through the ankle cuffs, then second the wrists before sticking your head through the neck cuff. It works surprisingly easy when you pull open the neck

cuff with both hands when sliding through. do not push through with brute force.

When storing the drysuit for longer time, please put some talcum powder on all Latex cuffs for conservation to keep them smooth and elastic. In case of damaged Neoprene or ripped Latex cuff please always contact a professional surf-/sailing or divingshop specialized on Neoprene repair service. for replacement please contact www.specialisedlatex.co.uk and only use original premium quality SEAMTITE ® Latex cuffs same as on the suit.

— cA N I c U T Th E LATE X c U FFS TO A DJU ST MY NE c k SIZ E ? yes, very simple! the Latex cuffs come in a pretty tight dimension to also fit slim people. to ensure perfect waterproofness and wearing comfort please customize the Latex cuff opening to the size especially on your neck. It must be fairly tight to be waterproof, but should not choke breathing or blood circulation. Note, cuffs are getting wider after a while and it feels much less choking once on the water than trying it at home. first stretch apart all cuffs with both hands to make them softer before trying out the fitting. If they are still too tight simply fold the cuff flat and hold it without too much tension with both hands. a second person should use sharp scissors to trim the cuff along the small ribs. attention: try out the fit in small 5 mm steps – otherwise it is too loose and water will leak inside!

— h O W DO I U SE Th E h O O D? the body loses quite a bit of heat on your head – that’s why the FUSE has a smart hood, which you can wear on the beach and even while riding on the water! It also works very well in combination with an additional IoN Neo Beanie or Neo hood.

Simply put it over your head and pull the front elastic cord to seal your face. then pull on the elastic drawcord on the back of your head to adjust the tension. It will keep the hood wrapped tightly around your head and keep your eyesight open while turning your head to left and right! If you don’t like wearing the hood, you can

simply fold the top part into the hood and use it as a large wind shield stand-up collar on the back of your neck. there are several drain holes cut into the hood for water release after submerging. the FUSE 2012 got an improved hood which can be fully detatched by snapbuttons when not needed.

— h OW D O I cArE FOr T hE S UIT IN GEN ErAL? Please check general care instructions on the inside of the suit. after use, always turn inside out and rinse thoroughly with fresh water and a mild soap. then hang it on a wide hanger for complete drying. once dry, you can turn it back on the right side out to let it dry too. this will avoid smelly odor from little botanical biotopes growing in your suit!

When storing the drysuit for longer time, please put some talcum powder on all Latex cuffs for conservation to keep them smooth and elastic. Store it in a dry place without sunlight hanging on a broad hanger. Never expose to sunlight to dry the suit – UV radiation will damage the Neoprene and Latex cuffs most severely!

— WhAT S AFETY p rEcAUTION S A rE IMp O rTAN T? Riding in icy conditions can easily lead to life-threatening situations! you ride at your own risk, so know what you are doing and never risk your life or others!

Never ride alone, so that you can help each other quickly in case of emergency. always let someone assist you when closing and opening the back zipper to make sure it is securely locked at the zipper end and definitely closed tightly. Never try to close or open the zipper by yourself! this could lead to a malfunction and a seriously dangerous situation later on the water if icy water floods into the suit in case the zipper accidentally snaps open. you can release some trapped air inside the drysuit before riding.

Submerge your body in the water half way and open the neck cuff just slightly, till it feels comfortable, not too tight and not too bloated. this also prevents potential of flipping over with your legs floating up over your body!

— rELEAS E OF LIABILITY the ION FUSE DRYSUIT is specifically made to protect you riding in extremely cold weather conditions. Nevertheless: this does not eliminate the potential hazards of riding in icy temperatures. It still can be highly dangerous to your health and life if things go wrong! you ride at your own risk, so know what you are doing and never risk your life or others.

Bare in mind that there is always a possibility of getting a leak in the suit by accident, impact, malfunction or misuse. any rupture, broken seam / Latex cuffs or rippped open zipper might cause instant flooding of the suit with ice-cold water. the consequences can be extremely dangerous and might result in a life threatening situation of hypothermia and drowning.

So, always check the complete suit carefully for ruptures, damages and potential malfunctions before you go on the water. If there are any signs of damage or weaknesses, have it checked by a professional surf-/sailing or divingshop specialized on Neoprene and drysuit repair service. the biggest danger is always personal overestimation of your own’s capabilities and ignoring potential hazards. always use common sense according to the present conditions and don’t ride too far out on the open water. Make sure you can return safely back to shore by your own in case of an emergency situation.

NEVER RIDE ALONE! always make sure you can call for instant help from other riders on the water.

Like many other young people on the island of Sal, airton didn’t have a caring family behind him, but his passion for the waves changed his life.

It was IoN team rider Kirsty Jones, who gave him his very first own surf board about ten years ago, during an event hosted at his local beach. from this moment on, airton was surfing all day, every day.

Libero cozzolino, manager of the tribal Surf kite school in Sal, noticed airton’s enormous talent and kept on supporting him. a special friendship developed between them. they become like father and son, with Libero finally adopting airton. as airton grew, he spent all of his time in the water, surfing and kiting. he kept on developing his own unique style, but his extraordinary talent still hadn’t shown its full potential.

In 2010 he made his first appearance in an International kiteboarding wave competition in Italy, called capo del capo. he didn’t win the contest, finishing second, but show-cased his unique wave-riding skills. his clean and aggressive style left a big impression – it was obvious to everyone that this was just the start of a brilliant career.

In 2011 he became an official part of the IoN team and got the opportunity to compete in the selections for the KSP Wave tour. airton immediately proved to be ready for the next big step. the first contests were crucial for his competition experience: It was quite obvious that he was a very strong and technical rider, but at first his raw talent alone was not enough. With too many mistakes in heats, often trying very technical maneuvers and always risking too much, airton struggled to make the results meet his obvious ability. But it was soon clear that airton wouldn’t need too much time to understand the format of a wave contest, to get used to heat durations and to understand what really counts for the final score.

By the time airton was qualified for the last part of the KSP tour, he understood the rules of a wave competition. he made his way into the finals to compete against the red-hot Mitu Monteiro in Mauritius. In only 15 minutes he was able to tell his whole story to the world – a summary of his past that leaves the world of kiteboarding full of questions. his style, commitment, wave choice and the ability to ride in any position regardless of wind directions were outstanding. airton’s successes on the KSP tour events confirm that the kiteboard sport has not only a new Wave World champion, but also a still rising star. airton is unique in the kiteboard world: he is not only one of the very, very few pro riders that are Italian native speakers, but it is his ability to make extremely hard tricks and moves look so easy like no one before. his future won’t be boring and will help to take the sport to completely new levels in future. thanks to Kirsty for giving this small, unknown street kid her surfboard years ago, kiteboarding has a safe future!

he is what you call a real waterman: Born in new zealand, living at australia’s gold coast, paul Jackson, called “Jacko�, has always been surrounded by water. he dedicated his life to kiting and surfing alike, and finally got hooked on sUping because of frustrating small days. from frustration to success was just a small step for the australian waterman: now Jacko belongs to the top ten sUp race competitors worldwide.

Paul, you have been Australian kite surfing champion. Why did you switch to SUP on a professional level? yeah, I love kiting and to win the aussie title was something that took me by surprise.

I was truly stoked to do it! But it was right about the same time I was starting to set myself new goals and SUP racing was what I could see as one of my biggest challenges!

When I started training, it just started to consume all my time and I really had to make a choice, what I wanted more and SUPing won out.

When did you first think about practicing SUP on a professional level? Was there a certain kind of turning point? to be honest I don’t even know when the turning point was and to be real honest, I would have never thought that I could be on the same level as the top guys in this sport, who are amazing athletes! I guess it could have been a bit of luck at the start with a few good results that gave me some extra confidence. as much as I hate to admit it: I like the rush of good hard competition and this is what I see in SUP!!!

Who is your favorite rival you would love to beat at the moment?

I never just pick one person to beat, for me if I do something I want to be the best and will always give 110 % in everything I do from training to racing. If I got beaten, I never get upset or let it bother me. I just tell myself that I have to train harder and smarter.

Compared to many other water sports, SUP is still a young sport. How will it develop in the future?

Right now we are just learning to walk in SUP and it has a MaSSIVE future! how big – I don’t think any of us really know! But I am here to do my part and help set the future guys up. I see big things just around the corner and can‘t wait!!!

You are living in Australia, could you imagine settling down somewhere else one day?

I don’t think so. I love the Goldy and I have it so good here – It would be hard to imagine living anywhere else. But life is a funny thing and we never really know what is just around the corner.

How does a regular week for you look like “Down Under”? train and work pretty much is how my life is at the moment. I love my training, which makes it easy. I train anywhere, from 20–35 hours a week at the moment, as well as run two SUP and Kite stores. I like to mix training up and I am always trying new things.

I just took up oc6 with a few other good SUP race guys and we won the aussie tittles.

p A u l j A c K

s

O

N

What are your sportive goals for the next year?

I want to be the best and I’ll train damn hard to do it. I will do the main competitions like the battle of the paddles. I would love to work with fanatic to develop an unlimited down wind board and have a good crack at the Molokai. I really just want to get to the main races with solid competition and push myself as hard as I can!

Which is your favorite SUP Spot worldwide?

Pretty hard to beat: your own home break which for me is currumbin on the Gold coast.

How and where do you want to get old one day? What’s your perfect idea? as long as there are pumping waves and my wife is with me, I’ll be stoked to be anywhere!

LINE c O NcE pT Even though Neo tops are mostly used in warm water, they can be used very versatile to react to changing weather conditions. It’s a clever way to quickly add some extra warmth when it’s getting a bit chilly or cloudy. they offer more heat retention compared to rashguards and feel extremely comfortable due to the super stretchy 0,5 – 2,0 mm S_Type Neoprene.

— of course they provide 100% UV protection and help reduce rash and pressure marks from a harness or lying on a surfboard. It even works great as an additional layer of Neoprene underneath your wetsuit when extra warmth is needed.

D O m I N I K g ü h R s

Dominik Gührs, born, raised and still living in Munich, Bavaria, Germany, home of the Octoberfest. The down to earth, 23 years old young gun has been turning some heads in the international wakeboarding scene during the last seasons and was awarded “Rider of the Year” and became world champion in 2011. ION asked him about his sports career, thoughts of the sport in general and his life in 10 years: Dominik, you started wakeboarding when you were only 10 years old. How did you get to start wakeboarding, is there anybody who inspired you? And why?

That’s a funny story :) I went to a store to buy a skateboard, but then the shop owner said: “forget about the skateboard and try wakeboarding” and I asked him “what’s Wakeboarding?” – So he told me the whole story about it and gave me an address, where I could try wakeboarding. I went there with my brother and my parents and fell straight in love with it! My parents supported both, my brother and me, from the very beginning. When I first saw Bernie Hinterberger riding and all these crazy tricks he was doing, I said to myself “Woooowww I wanna be as good as he is” So he inspired me a lot in this sport!

When did you first think about riding on a professional level? Was there a certain kind of turning point?

I never thought about wakeboarding on a professional level and I’m still not. The most important things for me have always been to have fun on the water, learn new tricks and push myself to the limits.

That’s what brought me to the point, where I am now: The love for this sport!!

You have been wakeboarding for about 13 years now – How has the sport been developing over the past 13 years?

I think wakeboarding made a big step in the last couple of years and it is still growing! Tricks are getting better and better, cableparks are built one after another, the media is more and more into wakeboardwakeboard ing, as well as the sport probably will be part of Olympic Games in 2020! I am in the strong opinion that it will be one of the top sports in a couple of years!!

You have the opportunity to live your sport as a fulltime job. What is the best part of a pro rider’s life?

I feel really lucky to live that life I have right now, because I am able to travel the world, meet new people and do something I am passionate about. I’m living my dream and that’s the best part of my pro rider life.

You won the people-choice award “rider of the year 2011” of the gap magazin.com and mag71. Why do you think people voted for you?

2011 was a great year for me, I won the Worldseries Tour as well as the World Championships. That was probably the reason why people voted for me and said that I deserve it! I was super stoked when they gave me the award and I need to say again a huge THANK YOU to all the people out there, who voted for me! You guys are legends.

You are 23 years old now, what are the plans for the future? Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

I will try to ride as much as I can, push myself to the limits and try to become World Champion for a few more times. Where I see myself in 10 years? Hmmm, I have no idea, but I hope the future will bring only positive things!

IoN Kite Vests are designed to give you some extra support for waterstarts, not only beginners appreciate. they boost your self confidence as they reduce the impact when hammering onto the water surface and they give you an extra layer of warmth that extend your comfy time on the water!

We are constantly optimizing the construction, sometimes just in small details but with huge impact.

It‘s self-evident that we work hard to always keep the design on the next level!

Since last year all IoN vests have passed the CE – certification for Personal Protective device 89/686/EEc including several tests: shock absorbtion, floatation and chemical testing.

BO O TS A N D SH O ES B a r efoot F eeling That‘s what every rider wants! With the development of the Ballistic Socks and Plasma Socks in 2010 this concept was started.

This year we not only revised the Ballistic Socks 3/2 but completed that idea with the Ballistic Socks 6/5 for cold days and the Ballistic Toes 2,0 for tropical areas. Both new models offer super grip and natural feeling in combination with the famous Ballistic_Sole.

— IO N B allistic _Sole In 2006, ION developed a truely innovative feature, the ION Ballistic_Sole.

It provides an unmatched protection against most sharp mussels, coral reef and other sharp objects.

The Ballistic_Sole is equipped with an extra layer of highly tearing resistant ARAMID protection fibres.

These fibres are also used in bullet-proof vests for example.

Compared to conventional neoprene boots the ION Ballistic_Sole provides superior protection against many sharp objects in the water. Although, like an airbag in a car accident, there cannot be a 100% guarantee not to get injured. But the Ballistic_Sole surely provides the best combination of protection and flexibility for your feet!

patri mclaughlin is one of the most outstanding wave kitesurfers as well as an ambitious waterman. get a deep insight into his passion, pointing out his opinion about contests, karma, meditation and real estate business.

Patri, you coming from Maui and you still live there. What makes it special for you? Could you also imagine to live at another place?

I love Maui. I wake up on every day and there’s something to do. It’s windy 250–300 days a year, so we get some of the best kiting conditions as well as some of the biggest, best surf on the planet. If you ever get tired of that, we also have some of the best golf, and diving in the world. I was fortunate as a kid to do quite a bit of travelling, and I still haven’t found anywhere else in the world I would rather live. the locals say Maui No Ka oi. It means Maui is the best, and I must say I have to agree.

Maui is the ultimate place to live for all water sports enthusiasts. Do you consider yourself a waterman and what are you doing besides kiteboarding?

I guess I consider myself a waterman. I kite, I surf, I towsurf, I scuba dive, free dive. I stand up paddle, and Kayak here and there. I get to swim with whales, dolphins, sharks, and all kinds of marine animals.

I get in the water almost every day, and I love every minute of it.

p A t R I m c l A u

Why did you decide to focus mainly on kite boarding for your professional career?

When I was learning, Maui was the epicentre of Kiting. Lou Wainman, and flash austin were locals at my beach. the Red Bull King of the air was held here every year and I saw a whole slew of “pros” on a daily basis. My friend actually did a survey for school and found out that the top guys were making over a $100,000 a year. this was all big motivation for me. I wanted to travel and make good money so I worked my ass off for years doing the freestyle thing. Nothing ever came of it. as the high paid professional kiters started to disappear, only to be replaced with trust fund kids my determination started to fade. I just wanted to kite and have fun, so I stopped doing the freestyle thing and got into kiting waves for myself. I don’t need a lot of money to enjoy my life, I just need enough to sustain it. I started teaching lessons and riding waves every chance I got, and I got pretty good. I love pushing it in huge surf that really is my passion. I hope that one day soon I can just chase huge storms like the big wave surfers do. I want to show the world what can be done in big waves, and this is what keeps me motivated to pursue a “pro” career. Not the money. I’m already rich with experiences that most people will never have.

How do you prepare for contests? What kind of additional training do you do besides kite surfing? Do you have a trainings schedule?

I have a rigorous training schedule. I have been getting some support from Upcountry fitness, and I’ve been in the gym three times a week. I also train to hold my breath longer. honestly I try not to think of contest, I get quite nervous before a heat. I think I’m too competitive and it messes with my head, so I’m working on letting it all go and just trying to have fun. that’s what it’s all about anyway.

You are a very passionate vegetarian. Is it just a decision of what to eat or is there a philosophy of life behind it?

I am a vegetarian, and I have been since the day I was born. I believe in Karma, and I believe that killing and eating living things is bad Karma. I think it’s wrong that there are people in the world that make a small fortune from killing anything. I feel that some people are ignorant to what actually happens in these slaughterhouses, and people cringe when you talk about it. If you can’t handle hearing how your food is created, how can you handle eating it? also massively producing meat is unsustainable. It takes pounds and pounds of grain to make one pound of meat. If all that grain was transformed into bread and flour it could feed the world. honestly I can write a book about why being a vegetarian is a good thing. can you write a book why eating meat is a good thing??????

A healthy life and physical strength is essential to win a competition, but what about mental strength? What do you need to keep yourself mentally balanced and do you have any ritual to prepare yourself before an important competition?

I think that it’s my weakness. I get real psyched up before a heat, and I get butterflies. Lately I’ve been trying to meditate and keep my mind calm. I tell myself that it’s not a big deal and just have fun.

Who is your favourite rival you would love to beat at the moment? airton cozzolino. Keahi is also an amazing wave rider. I can do it, I just need to put my mind in a good place.

You were born in 1989, what hat are your goals in life until you are 30 years old?

I just want to have fun, and kite. I really would like to get a website business going, I got some ideas in the works already. I want to be successful with my real estate, and want to kite some huge surf in the next ten years.

andre Paskowski and Phil soltysiak sit down with 4x World Champion and current tour leader Venezuelan Gollito estredo at the 2012 PWa surf World Cup in Podersdorf, austria. Gollito lets loose about everything from his home, motivation and mother through to injuries and new moves.

g e

o s

l t

PS: We’re in Podersdorf, Austria, in the middle of the PWA World Cup in May 2012, it’s 1 in the afternoon, what’s on your mind?

GE: right now? I don’t know, my mind is like waiting for the wind. I don’t know if we can finish the double elimination. I think it’s possible, the wind is picking up now, so for sure they will start.

PS: Are you thinking about your heats during the double elimination?

GE: Not yet, maybe when I know the guy who will compete against me in the final.

PS: You started windsurfing at the age of 7, in El Yaque, Isla Margarita. Was it a famous place for windsurfing at this time already, or was it you making it famous?

GE: It was, more for vacations and people coming to windsurf than for producing world champions. ricardo (Campello), Collette (Gudagnino) also already drawn some attention to this place.

PS: Why did you start windsurfing?

GE: I started with windsurfing because I saw my brother on the water sailing every day. I sat on the beach watching him, and one time I asked him if I can try it. He said “No, you are too small, you have to wait”. I convinced him and he brought me a big board and small sail and he taught me the basics, then I just started doing it myself. He watched me for a bit and was impressed; he said “Hey man, you’re good”. Then I came to the beach every day, and I waited for him to finish work to ask him if we can go again. He always said “ya, for sure”.

l r

i e

t d

o o

PS: Was there competition between you and your brother? Did you want to be better than him?

GE: I was very young at this moment. I did not think about that.

He was 16 years old, and I was 7. He was already really good; he made competitions in slalom already. And then around 6 years later I competed with him in freestyle and I beat him. He was around 23 or 24 at the time, but he was so happy to see me improve so much.

He said “Man, you will be the man”. Everybody in El yaque was so happy for me then.

PS: And after you beat your brother, were you the best windsurfer in El Yaque?

GE: No there were others like ricardo, Diony, Colette, Daida and Iballa were also there competing then. At that time ricardo was one of the best already, Diony was really good too. For me to beat my brother was something I never thought would happen. All my friends on the beach picked me up, carried me around and we jumped around celebrating.

PS: Do you have a good relationship with your brother? Were you competitive with him at home too?

GE: This was his last competition windsurfing, and then he changed to kitesurfing. He became a professional kitesurfer. I didn’t have it in my mind that I need to compete with him. He taught me a lot of things and I always listened to him.

PS: Do you have other siblings, and if yes, are they also in water sports?

GE: I have 4 brothers and 1 sister. They all windsurf, but also work.

My brother has a windsurfing and kitesurfing school, my other brother works in the kitchen, the other and my mom work in a hotel.

Everybody’s working and still lives in El yaque, I see them every day.

PS: You told me that your mom isn’t that much into water sports, so what is her opion of your life as a professional athlete?

GE: She’s really happy with what I’ve accomplished. She knows I’m the World Champion. Sometimes I show her a video, and she starts crying. A lot of friends come to my house and do interviews with her, and she explains to them what I do, what I did before when I went to school and what I do now.

PS: Does your mother motivate you when you go windsurfing?

GE: yes, every day she tells me you have to go train, you have to go train. And also when I go travel she helps me a lot. She works very early, and she asks that before I leave I come by her work to say goodbye, but I always forget, and when I’m on the plane I say “Noooo”, and I get a little bit sad, knowing I will not see her for a long time.

PS: Do you still live with your whole family, everybody lives in one house?

GE: Now I live with my mother, I built a pretty big house for her, we have 4 rooms. She lives in 1 room, and I live in the other room. My brothers also live in El yaque, but they also built separate houses with their girlfriends.

PS: How did you live before?

GE: Before we had a small house, and we lived all in this small house with 2 rooms. I slept together with my 4 brothers. It was a little bit hard to sleep, but you know life changes, and you hope things get better, and finally I did something for the better.

PS: What was the breaking point when you decided to leave El Yaque and start traveling and competing?

GE: I did not decide myself that I wanted to do it. I think it was in 2004, when Tom Brendt came to me and he said North and Fanatic are interested in you. I was surprised. They gave me a board and 2 sails, with this I started training more and more. The board wasn’t even a freestyle board, it was a 68l wave board. I started to train with this equipment and then I think in 2005, like 6 months later, he come to me and said “hey, I have a surprise for you, North and Fanatic want that you go to Europe to compete”. I was so happy! I ran and jumped straight to my mother, and I said “hey mom, we have to go make my passport” I didn’t even have a passport at this time.

Then I got the passport, and 2 months later I started to travel.

PS: What are your future plans Gollito?

GE: I will keep competing; I don’t know when I will stop. When I feel the need to finish I will finish. I also want to do slalom. This will be my next discipline.

Andre: I spoke to Brawzinho, and he said that if he knew he could not win, he would not compete, he would stay at home.

GE: I don’t think like that. I enjoy competing whether I win or not. To loose brings me down, but in the next days you forget it, and then you say now it’s your time, and you have to forget what happened before.

PS: Did you ever have pressure from your family to be good in sport?

GE: No, I think that’s a good thing, they are really relaxed with me.

And it’s all on me to be good. Nobody pushes me to competitions and everything is easy. They only pushed me all the time to go training. And that’s really good.

PS: Are you afraid of getting injured again?

GE: No, when I break something I go sailing afterwards and I don’t remember what happened before.

PS: Where is the future for moves? Where is the end?

GE: There is no end, it’s never finished.

Andre: I remember sitting several years ago thinking this is the end, ok, no more moves are possible.

GE: All the time there is something new, some new combination, I have some new move ideas in waves. I hope I can do it. For now it’s a secret.

GE: Guys let’s finish this interview. Look at my shirt, it’s completely wet from sweat.

Andre: you can sell it on Ebay!

A n d t e s

alexander tesch is the prototype of an athletic surfer guy: tall and strong, with sundried blond hair. His performance out in the water shows that he has a great talent for timing and a radical style. there is just one thing which doesn´t fit into a surfer’s biography: the 21 years-old was born and raised in Bavaria, in a small town next to a lake called Woerthsee: Flat water all the time, 365 days a year.

But in 2011, alexander was the first German residential surfer to win the German championship after a long time. the local surfer community was wondering how he could showcase such a radical and nice style without living close to the shore or showing up at the river spots in Munich city.

Tell us Alexander, how did you do that?

I always tried to keep progressing. During summer time I work as a surf instructor at a French camp – best conditions to train there, too. I also had the great opportunity to do some sessions with the daughter of the Australian head coach, who is a friend of mine. We did some video analyses together, which helped me a lot to improve.

However, to win the title in 2011 was still a big surprise for me.

Where did you learn to surf? At the Woerthsee, seriously?

No, the very first time I stood on a buggyboard was at the French coast when I was six years old. My parents always went to France on their holidays and when it turned out that I was hooked on surfing, they were very supportive and from then on we checked out the best surf spots on the French Atlantic coast.

e c

r H

You still never lived near the sea?

No, I kept on going to school in Starnberg (close to his hometown) and graduated in 2010. However, I have spent most summers in a French surf camp and worked as an instructor for years. After I won the title in 2011, I even had to work night shifts at a hospital to earn enough money for a big surf trip for a whole year.

Where did you go?

I spent most of the time in Australia and New zealand. Unfortunately, I injured my shoulder and had to leave earlier than I had planned. I still had many positive experiences, saw incredibly beautiful places and now I’m a 100% sure that I want to surf all life long!

How is it to be on a professional level? Or do you have other plans for the future?

I am not sure about that. I think I will leave Germany to study abroad – where I can combine studying and surfing. How my professional surfing career will work out, we will see! But I am very happy to be part of the IoN Team and stay tuned.

INTER_POL

RI-PEL treatment

The Zeiss Inter_Pol lens is developed for ION to ensure more fun on the water. The ION Inter_Pol lens is a development by Zeiss for windwatersports. It enables you to spy the wind on the water surface by using a special lens color that harmonizes perfectly with the applied multi layer coating. This combination allows early wind detection and ensures more fun on the water.

_ highly functional super-hydrophobic coating on front and backside of the ION_ZEISS lenses _ superior hydrophobic technology _ durable and everlasting _ dirt, oil, dust and water repellent _ easy to clean & Scratch resistant _ perfect for any weather conditions

8 base spherical decentred lens

UV filtering

This wrapping lens, excellent for strong curved frames, follows the face contour. Therefore it protects the eye from external interferences (wind, water, salts, etc).

This lens also offers a clear view on peripheral areas, as the distortion effect is highly reduced conpared to a classic spherical lens.

Despite its ultra lightweight, the lens ensures a 100 % UV shield, preventing eye damages from sun rays.

Lightness Lightness guaranteed thanks to the thinness of the lens and material.

Optical properties The ZEISS sunlenses used in these sunglasses have been tested in order to achieve both advanced protection from the sun’s rays and optical perfection.

Through the exclusive ZEISS qualifcation procedure, our laboratory analyzes each model in order to ensure the lenses’ optical excellence, visible by the engraved Z on each lens.

Adhesion The hard coating’s efficiency contributes greatly in the quality of the mirror adhesion and therefore to its durability.

HD SCRATCH RESISTANCE ZEISS sunlens developed one of the industry‘s toughest hard-coating strongest resins on the market. field trials and laboratory tests (like the “Eraser” test) proved its efficiency and durability.

Impact Resistance Thanks to the use of top quality, shock resistant, injection molded polycarbonate, which provides a great impact resistance
