Check out this product called Pau Pilau, It’s amazing! It is made to clean Neoprene especially, couple other things too, but its all natural which is super cool and the bacillus it is made of is what kills the bad small urine or what ever it may be making your suite smell its great! a lot of shops in cali sell it and they have a website too google it.
One of the biggest problems with trying to dry the whole family’s suits inside is the amount of water they retain which drips everywhere and they don’t all fit in the shower. Will it do any harm to put them in the washing machine spin cycle before hanging them up??? I can’t see why it would as there is no heat or detergent. Any ideas?
I actually have put my Oneill Psycho in the washing machine on gentle without soap for about seven years now, and just last week bought a new wetsuit. Didn’t seem to hurt it at all, never had a bad smell and dry time was faster from spin cycle.
Great tips!! Try this wetsuit hanger it’s the best I’ve found. It was Recomended to me buy Patagonia and O’neil. You hang your wetsuit from the waist.

My question might be strange… but what I would really like was to find a way the suit becames smaller (like it happens with some of our clothes) or at least a way it doesn’t get larger. The thing is that I’ve lost way with so mmuch surf, and now the suit is big.
I’m still nor sure if I’m happy or sad about this ahaha
Susana :)) sorry, there is no way to make a wetsuit smaller, now you have an excuse to get a new one. Be happy :).
