A weekend away with Tully & Eddy testing our Yulex Freedom Natural wetsuits.
With a bump in swell coming to the east coast, Tully & Eddy thought it was a perfect opportunity to grab the twinnys, pack up the van and head north to one of our favourite little zones for a weekend away putting the new YULEX FREEDOM NATURAL wetsuit collection through its paces.
These wetsuits are constructed using alternative materials like our Yulex renewable, plant-based foam & recycled jerseys blended with spandex focusing on comfort and performance for summer.
All of these suits are currently available on our site here
In Episode 2 of this 2-part series we continue our conversation with the YULEX team to answer the most commonly asked questions surrounding our neoprene free, natural rubber wetsuits such as:
• What is PEFC and FSC?
• How does the current Yulex wetsuit compare to previous versions and against limestone suits?
• Yulex projects and what's next
In this 2 part series we chat with the YULEX team to answer the most commonly asked questions surrounding our neoprene free, natural rubber wetsuits such as:
- What is Yulex? (The Yulex Company & Yulex Products)
- Where does Yulex natural rubber come from?
- What is the process of creating Yulex natural foam for wetsuits?
- Why is Yulex more sustainable than the more commonly used limestone or petroleum neoprene constructions?
Early November the phone rings, it's our friends film maker Spencer Frost & photographer Guy Williment. They tell us, Russia is calling.
"February / March gets the most east coast swell historically, that's our best chance. Letty & Fraser are in, Anton is ready and waiting in Russia - can we make it happen this season?"
Here is a behind the scenes look with the Project Blank team and Corners of the Earth crew at the wetsuit testing and making.

A surf trip to far east Russia. By Spencer Frost and Guy Williment, featuring Fraser Dovell and Letty Mortensen.
We kitted out the Corners of The Earth team in our next generation of steamers and sent them off to explore one of the wildest, most isolated coastlines on the planet. In the name of "Research & Development", the crew braved freezing cold water, snow storms and sub-zero winds, putting our new green-minded wetsuits to the ultimate test.
