Prolimit Surf Shoes Unisex Predator 3MM Black

Prolimit Surf Shoes Unisex Predator 3MM Black are for those who want to keep warm feet in spring and fall without giving up the instant board feel. The 3 mm neoprene shaft fits tightly but smoothly around foot and ankle and warms up quickly as soon as you move. The round toe leaves your toes free for natural balance during water starts, jibes and short runs on beach or jetty. The flexible outsole provides sure grip on wet deck, pontoons and slippery pebbles, but remains thin enough to precisely feel pressure on footpads, rails and strapping positions. Inside, the lining feels soft and dries smoothly between sessions; the low collar slides neatly under your wetsuit leg for a draft-free seal. Reinforcements on heel and instep increase durability when you often run over rough ground or push off firmly in chop. So you get a light, direct shoe that protects your feet from cold prickly winds, shells and slippery jetties-without an unwieldy, spongy feel.

On Dutch lakes, ponds and along the coast, you especially notice how calm and predictable the Predator 3MM feels when the wind turns or picks up. The shaft rolls along with your ankle, allowing you to "read" the foil or board better and have to correct less when landing or turning. In kitesurfing and windsurfing, you can confidently build pressure toward the lip without slippage; on the sup or in the boat, you'll avoid cold feet and maintain fine control when paddling or hooking up. Donning is hassle-free thanks to the flexible opening and heel loop; once on, the shoe remains stable without twisting around the foot. After the session, rinse off salt and sand in a minute, pat out the water and hang them to dry-materials and stitching retain their shape and elasticity even after frequent use in salt and lower temperatures. Practical, durable and just thick enough to help, not get in the way.
