Where can I find this Big Sea film to watch it?

Really good episode, and a very simple takeaway - never again buy another neoprene wetsuit.

There is also SEDO Chemicals Neoprene GmbH near Berlin, Germany

Also, it's not just the surfing community, but the Triathlon community who use wetsuits, Yamamoto being the favourite material for swim suits ... I really hope Yulex will be a good enough quality to replace neoprene in the triathlon world.

Wetsuits for the DLRG water rescue teams in Germany are still being made from neoprene, I have written to marinepool who make the suits. They are busy making changes to become more environmentally friendly, but changes in material for their wetsuits aren't on the agenda (yet)

Guess it's the same with the RNLI?

Wow! Eye opening, and painful to hear.

Would like to hear a story on who and how Yulex developed their foam.

Great interview and can’t wait to see the film! What’s the story behind Yulex? Are there any podcasts on them?

HI, great interview.

Can you put me in contact with the guys as I have a foundation which could provide some funding

Thanks
