How to Protect Your Ears When Swimming: the advantage of Moulded Custom Ear Plugs
Swimming outdoors is a fantastic way to boost your physical and mental health, but it's essential to protect your ears from potential harm. In this video, we dive deep into the common ear issues faced by swimmers, including swimmer's ear and surfer's ear.
We meet with Claire, a qualified audiologist from Moulded, to learn about the risks and how to prevent them. Claire shares valuable insights into ear health and the importance of having good-fitting earplugs.
We follow Tam as she gets her initial ear check (has she got any ear issues?), the process of creating custom-moulded earplugs, and finally, the moment of truth as she tests them out in the water.

How to Put on a Wetsuit
Переглядів 420Місяць тому
Putting on a wetsuit can be tough work. Especially when they’re brand new out the box. The neoprene will stretch slightly and they loosen up a bit when in the water. Plus there’s always spare neoprene gathered somewhere that can make it that much more comfortable. That’s why we’ve brought in the expert: Angus from Yonda, to go through all the tips he’s learnt over the years to make sure you get...

    I have ordered one and note that it loosens up in the water but how easy is it to get out of when wet? I can get out of it dry (with a wiggle) but is it harder when wet? I didn’t size up (M) so not sure whether to risk it…

      Hi Robin! So sorry for our super late reply to your comment - we've only just seen it. They say it stays warm for up to 6 hours due to the insulation the cover provides, and our Mum often wears hers for that long and finds it still warm. We would say around 2-3 hours where we feel it nice and warm. We have these in stock now and so good in the colder months :)

      Hi Hannah! Thanks for your comment - it might be a bit long in the body and on the arms and legs. Tam here is 5 foot 7 and wears the XXL. This wetsuit has unfortunately been discontinued by Zone3 but we can recommend the Yonda Spook Wetsuit which comes in a range of sizes including the SS size which is for shorter heights but generous around the bust area.

    When you kicked off your sandals and flexed your red-painted toes into the sand- I felt that! (Used to live by the beach- was nice but far too many people! Now live in the woods, by a river. It's very quiet, but I sometimes miss the beach, and miss digging for dinner.) One big thing I like about living near/swimming in the river is that, the few things that wish to eat me, are very small and cannot cause harm. Our coast, on the other hand, has sharks and such, plus a lot of tourists! Much love from across the pond- thanks for taking me along for a refreshing swim!
