Replacing Wetsuit Knee Pads
Your knees are particularly vulnerable to damage from paddling out, taking off, and friction against the board. Even minor abrasions can lead to holes or water leakage if left untreated. By replacing or reinforcing your knee pads, you can keep your wetsuit in good condition and extend its usable life.
Prices are subject to change depending on the nature of the repair. We will provide you with the official price and estimated completion date after assessing the condition of the item.
Checking the condition of the knee area
Check the condition of the knee pads and the surrounding fabric for signs of wear, holes, or tears on just one knee.
