Manera Magma 6/4 Frontzip Hooded Women 2026 Wetsuit

Stay warm all winter with Manera's hooded wetsuit

January, force 7, water at four degrees and a hailstorm that kicks off just as you start pumping up your kite. That's the moment most kiters turn around and drive home. In the Manera Magma 6/4 Frontzip Hooded Women 2026, you just head out on the water. This is the winter wetsuit from Manera, built for the days when staying warm matters more than anything else.

The 6/4mm thickness and the hood work together like a thermos. The hood seals off your neck and head, so that icy flush of water doesn't run down your collar when you crash. On a stormy day that can easily buy you an extra half hour on the water, because your session usually doesn't end when your arms are tired, it ends when your neck and head give up. Inside you'll find Magma+ fleece, a lining that holds on to your body heat while staying flexible, so even a wetsuit this thick moves with you during a jump or a quick trick with your board. Bonus: Magma+ fleece dries 30% faster than standard fleece. Two sessions in one day no longer means squeezing yourself back into a cold, clammy suit.

For 2026 the Magma switches to OCENA, a neoprene-free bio-based foam. It's made from natural rubber sourced from FSC-certified forests close to the factory in Southeast Asia, combined with oyster shell powder and plant-based oil. Warmth, flex, comfort and durability stay at the level you expect from a Magma, just with a much smaller impact on the environment you ride in every winter. The glue that bonds the jersey to the foam is water-based.

The fit is where Manera really stands out. Most brands start with 2D patterns and then fold them around a 3D body. Manera designs the wetsuit in 3D first, then uses software to convert it into patterns for the factory. The result: no creases, no air pockets and no pulling under your armpits. Fewer creases means less water flushing in, and less water flushing in means you're still not cold after an hour and a half. The seams are kept out of the friction and stress zones, so no red marks on your neck after a long winter day and more stretch where you need it.

Mostly on the water in spring and autumn and looking for something a bit thinner? Check out the Magma 5/4/3 Frontzip Women 2026. Want to kite right through winter and not think about your summer wetsuit until April? Then the Manera Magma 6/4 Frontzip Hooded is the one. Pull it on, put the hood up and bring on the storm.

Want to hit the water fully prepared? Check out the complete Manera range, from gloves to Magma boots, and never feel the cold again. For your hands, grab the Magma Lobster Glove in 2.5 or 5 mm: the lobster shape keeps your fingers together, so they stay extra warm. Prefer more feel on your bar? Then the Magma Open Palm Glove 2.5 mm is your pick. For your feet, go for the Magma Boots in 5 or 7 mm with a round toe for those properly cold days, or the X10D Boots 3 mm with a split toe if you want a bit more board feel.
