Don’t be alarmed with the word H-Bomb, as this is no explosive but a heated wetsuit instead – a first in the world, so it seems. Initial tests in the Arctic Circle have proven it to be rather effective. All it takes is a couple of batteries to heat up the stretchable material, keeping the wearer warm and toasty thanks to carbon-fibre coils which run up the back of the suit and warm up the surfer’s core. While the batteries look slim, they are pretty heavy so it could limit movement to a certain degree. Well, better move slowly and stay warm than freeze to death in the middle of nowhere. A full battery charge takes up to three hours, but it lasts for up to 2.5 hours at best when used. The H-Bomb will retail for around $1,160.
