Windy session, cold water, you gear up and go. The GURU WIND 5/4 BZ keeps you focused on planning, not shivering.
When it’s blowing at the lake or sea, you want to ride without thinking. This 5/4 mm suit is made for wind sports and delivers comfort with soft, committed Organic Oysterprene foam. Back zip for quick entry, warmth where it counts, and a real shield against biting air. You jibe, rest, re-gear: simple and effective.
Comparing the 5/4s in the shop? Check out the 5/4 Men's Full Suit category to see how the GURU WIND stacks up against other models, including the GURU+ ORGANIC OYSTERPRENE 5/4 and the hooded version GURU+ 5/4/3 Hood.
The Storm Dry lining covers the thighs, belly, and back. You feel the temperature rise from the first runs, and it stays stable when the wind picks up. Recoveries after a long waterstart are less “brrr” and more “go”.
The Black Diamond panel at the front and back acts like a windshield. Gusts hit you less, transitions remain clean. Useful when you’re heading upwind in gusts and the torso takes it all.
The Organic Oysterprene foam (certified USDA 63% bio-based) provides natural flex. Torso rotations for trimming/letting out happen without straining the shoulders. By the end of the session, your arms will thank you.
Back Zip = quick entry in the parking lot, even with a bit of wind playing with the towel. You pull, adjust, and go. Less hassle, more ride.
GBS (glued and blind stitched) assembly with internal tape. Tight and clean feel, less water entry when you fall in the lulls between gusts. The only thing dripping is your nose after take off.

You ride in windsurf, kite, or wing when it’s pumping, you want a 5/4 that cuts the air and keeps your core warm. The GURU WIND is your “mistral/thermal/gust” suit that remains mobile for trimming, pumping, and recovering without tensing up.
Need even more protection for the real winter hits? Check out the GURU WIND 6/5/4. And to complete the arsenal on the cold dock, think about the 5mm RT LC Zippered Boots to keep your footing responsive.
The GURU WIND 5/4 is equipped with a Back Zip (rear zip). You open wide, slide your shoulders in without forcing, and close in two seconds. Handy in a windy parking lot or when you’re chaining sessions and want to get back out quickly without fighting with the suit.
The brand's recommended use is focused on wind sports (windsurfing, kitesurfing, wingsurfing). For pure cable/park use, you can compare with other 5/4s in the “5/4 Men's Full Suit” category that are more geared towards continuous pull riding and without windproof panels.
It’s a 5/4 mm: 5 mm on the core for warmth, 4 mm on the mobility zones. In practice, it’s your suit for cool to cold sessions in wind, kite, or wing, when you want to keep flex without sacrificing insulation, especially with the windproof panels front/back.
The Storm Dry lining is positioned on the thighs, belly, and back. The idea is to concentrate the temperature rise where you take the wind and water, to stay operational between waterstarts and during long upwind runs.
The foam is made of Organic Oysterprene (natural rubber + oyster shell powder). Announced composition: 80% natural rubber, 9% recycled polyamid, 6% polyamid, 3% elastane, 2% polyester. The suit is certified USDA 63% bio-based.
Sizes listed by the manufacturer: S, MS, M, MT, LS, L, LT, XLS, XL, XXL, and 3XL. Choose according to your usual measurements for a men's fit. If you’re between two sizes, aim for the fitted one to limit water entry without restricting your mobility.
