Lycra

Lycra rashguards are the unsung workhorse of every serious surfer, kitesurfer, and SUP paddler's kit bag — light, fast-drying, and effective against both sun and abrasion.

A rashguard rated UPF 50+ blocks 98% of UV radiation, so you can spend a full day on the water without loading up on sunscreen. Long-sleeve options also protect against board rash, harness chafing, and jellyfish contact. Flatlock stitching keeps seams smooth where they sit under a harness or wetsuit.

• UPF 50+ protection: full-day sun coverage without sunscreen
• Flatlock seams: no chafing under a kite harness or wetsuit
• Four-way stretch: unrestricted movement for paddling and riding

ION makes some of the most durable rashguards in the game — built for daily use, not occasional beach trips.
