Kids Wetsuits: Youth Springsuits, Fullsuits & Race Johns

Kids wetsuits for the grom who refuses to get out. When the water turns cold: the Flight youth 2/2mm short sleeve springsuit and 3/2mm long sleeve fullsuit for warmth, and the Rx and Vault youth race johns with knee and shin pads for the ones already lining up on a ski. 360 Stretch neoprene and YKK zips on every suit, because kids gear cops more climbing back on than anything in the shed.

You Have Questions? We Have Answers!

What wetsuit does my child need for jet skiing or wakeboarding?

A 2mm springsuit for warm water and the shoulder seasons, a 3/2mm fullsuit for winter, and a race john with knee and shin pads if they are already riding a ski hard. All of them are cut for a seated riding position and a lot of climbing back on.

Springsuit or fullsuit for kids?

The Flight youth 2/2mm short sleeve springsuit is the warm-water suit: back-zip entry, easy on, easy off, and back in the water before the tube is even pumped up. The Flight youth 3/2mm long sleeve fullsuit covers arms and legs for cold mornings and long sessions, with Jet-Tech knee pads.

What is a youth race john?

A sleeveless, full-leg neoprene suit for young PWC riders: warmth on the legs, arms free to ride, with EVA Pro-Tech knee and shin pads where a grom actually cops it. The Rx, RX Vault and Vault youth race johns pair with the Rx youth race jacket when it cools off.

Is there a boys wetsuit and a girls wetsuit?

The youth suits are cut for kids, not split into boys and girls, in youth sizes 6 to 14 by style. Size to the chart and the suit fits whoever is wearing it.

How should a kids wetsuit fit?

Snug, no loose folds behind the knees or under the arms, full movement with the arms overhead. Buy for the kid you have now. A suit bought to grow into lets water pool in the folds and does not keep them warm, which is the whole point.

Does my child still need a life jacket over a wetsuit?

Yes, every time, no exceptions. A wetsuit is warmth and impact gear, not flotation. An AS 4758 approved kids life jacket goes over the top, sized with the wetsuit on: Level 50S for the ski, the wake and the tube, or the high-vis Level 50 where your state requires it past smooth water. Check your state.

Where can I buy a kids wetsuit near me?

Online here, or through a Jetpilot dealer if you want to try one on the kid before you commit. The dealer page has the list.

The full rundown on Kids Wetsuits: Youth Springsuits, Fullsuits & Race Johns

Kids wetsuits that keep them in the water longer

A cold grom is a ten-minute session and a long drive home. Jetpilot kids wetsuits are cut for young riders on skis, boards and tubes: 360 Stretch neoprene that moves with them, YKK zips on every suit because zips are where kids gear dies first, and Jet-Loc seam construction so the suit lasts more than one season of climbing back on.

The suits

Flight Youth 2/2mm Short Sleeve Springsuit — the warm-water suit. Back-zip entry, seamless seat and underarm panels, on and off between swims without a fight.
Flight Youth 3/2mm Long Sleeve Fullsuit — arms and legs covered for cold mornings, Jet-Tech knee pads, the same back-zip entry.
Rx, RX Vault and Vault Youth Race Johns — sleeveless, full leg, EVA Pro-Tech knee and shin pads for the young ski rider, with the RX Vault in 2x2mm 360 Stretch Limestone Neoprene and the Vault carrying dual-density EVA padding.
Rx Youth Race Jacket — the neoprene top that goes over a race john: YKK chest zip, breathable flow panels, seamless underarm panels.

Fit first, then everything else

A wetsuit only works snug. No loose folds behind the knees or under the arms, full movement with the arms overhead, and buy for the kid you have now rather than the one they will be next summer, because a suit bought to grow into is a suit full of cold water. Youth sizes run 6 to 14 by style; the size guide has the measurements.

The vest goes over the top, every time

A wetsuit is warmth and impact gear, not flotation. An AS 4758 approved kids life jacket goes over the wetsuit, sized with the suit on: Level 50S for the ski, the wake and the tube, or the high-vis Level 50 where your state requires it past smooth water. The Australian life jacket regulations guide has each state's rule, and the level is marked on each product page.

Add a kids rashie for the sun, and if you want to try a suit on the kid before you buy, the dealer page has the list. The adult versions are on wetsuits.
