C-Monsta’s online marketing campaign over the winter has been eye-catching. Anyone who’s seen their stop-motion ‘bathroom’ scene of creeping wetsuits, boots, and gloves can’t fail to have taken notice. It’s undoubtedly helped raise C-Monsta brand awareness, that’s for sure. But C-Monsta products are more than just marketing.

The V2 hanger, change mat, and split bag are superbly over-engineered wetsuit care products. This is a big compliment and not a criticism. Most folks tend to chuck their wetties around willy-nilly. Yet, with longevity in mind, having a system that helps you take better care of your wetsuit is much better for your wallet and the environment. 

Using the change mat, paddlers can shed their rubber in comfort. Made from recycled welded 400D (the same as the split bag), it’s a heavy-duty change mat that also doubles as a wetsuit carrier. Simply fold up your wetsuit inside the mat and carry it to your vehicle.

Once there, the split bag comes into its own. Featuring twin compartments, you can drop your soggy gear in one side while keeping kit dry – such as a change robe – in the other. Robust straps and buckles help with transport and storage. Before you arrive back at base, it’s time to bust out the V2 hanger.

With its heavy-duty recycled plastic material, your wetsuit can be hung in nearly any location. Wetsuit accessories such as boots and gloves slip over the specially designed arms. Ventilation is then a given, meaning all your kit can be air-dried efficiently. Ready for your next session?

CONCLUSION
The complete C-Monsta eco-system of wetsuit care is a triumph of design. So, hats off to Mark Yeadon and the team for combining it with other C-Monsta products. Wetsuit care is important, not least because it’ll ensure your wetsuit is ready and waiting for that next bout of SUP. It’ll also help increase the life of your wetsuit and keep harmful petrochemical products, such as neoprene, out of landfills. Big up, C-Monsta!
