Stand Up Paddle boarding & Kayaking Wetsuits are considered Paddle Sport Wetsuits. These suits range from short sleeve springsuits, long sleeve full wetsuits, and sleeveless long john wetsuits for men and sleeveless long jane wetsuits for women. Paddle sport wetsuits are often cross over wetsuit like surfing wetsuits. These wetsuits have great upper body stretch and excellent range of motion. In colder conditions, it is beneficial to wear fullsuits that have sealed seams (GBS, glued and blind stitched seams). These seams do not allow wind to pass through the seams. Flatlock stitched paddle sport wetsuits allow wind to pass through the seams because there isn't glue in the seams. Flatlock suits are ideal for warm water conditions and they typically cost less than GBS sealed wetsuits.
SUP (Stand Up Paddleboarding) wetsuits are worn in surf conditions and flat water conditions. If you are in warm water conditions, consider a springsuit wetsuit. Springsuits come with short legs and either short sleeves or long sleeves. Brands like Hyperflex & Henderson are some of the brands that offer high stretch options.
SUP Wetsuits are worn in surf and flatwater conditions. Be mindful that you consider the air temperature and the water temperature when selecting a SUP full wetsuit for colder conditions. If you are in flat water conditions and don't typically get into the water, consider the air temperature. If it is cold air, look at sealed seam (GBS glued and blind stitched) options. Sealed seamed wetsuits prevent air from going through the seams. If you tend to at time overheat, consider a flatlock seamed wetsuit that can allow for some water and air to come through the seams. Flatlock seams are somewhat breathable seams.
