My new (end of last season) NeilPryde back zip wetsuit with only 20 sessions lost 3 teeth off of one side of the zipper and after contacting Windsurfing Wearhouse and trying to contact NeilPryde (no reply) I have gotten nowhere. I think NeilPryde's wetsuit business is no longer.

Anyone know of someone that does zipper repair on a wetsuit? Bay Area would be preferred but I can mail it if need be.

Thanks,

Carl

Had some good things done there that weren't shoes. Never wetsuits though.

You can try the O'Neal shop in Santa Cruz. Tell them you will pay for it. And next time, you might try buying an O'Neal. If your zipper ever fails on one of their suits, they will replace it for free.

And no, I am not a sponsor.

Thanks Gerritt will do. It's not like I can purchase a new NP anymore so the switch to O'Neal would be my first choice.

In Santa Cruz there's Blownout wetsuit repair on the Eastside and Heatwave custom wetsuits on the westside (I haven't been to Heatwave for 15 years, but I think they are still in business.) Monterey has Otter Bay- Otter Bay probably does the best work, and you can pick up your cold water mermaid suit while you're there.
