WARMTH AND FLEXIBILITY
The Gen³ S-Seal Hybrid range is surf, dive and spear in one suit — engineered for extreme versatility, real-world durability and all-conditions performance. Every suit is heavy-water tested and backed by our 365-day hassle-free guarantee.
And with the new external S-Seal seam system, you’re getting 20%+ more warmth and water resistance. Some brands run external seam protection on 4/3 and 5/4 suits – but no one has done this on 2mm and 3mm builds.
Gen³ Hybrid 2/2mm = 3mm suit warmth
Gen³ Hybrid 3/3mm = 4/3mm suit warmth
You get it...
That’s the power of S-Seal, compression-resistant limestone based neoprene, industry-leading internal and external jerseys and fully sealed construction.
3 REASONS WHY YOU WILL LOVE OUR GEN³ HYBRID WETSUITS:
1. One suit for surf, dive, spear, foil, and full-tilt ocean missions
Every Gen³ Hybrid is loaded with features:
– S-Seal external seams (up to 20% more warmth)
– Compression-resistant limestone neoprene
– Proprietary internal + external jerseys
– Loading pad
– Dive utility pocket
– SIK Dots
– Silicone lugs
– GBS triple glued blind-stitched seams
– Internal taping
– Optional inbuilt hood on select models
Feature-packed to the point that most companies wouldn’t attempt it — especially not in <3mm suits.
2. The warmest, most flexible, most durable hybrid suit on the market
2mm flex with the warmth of 3mm suits.
3/3mm warmth that rivals most 4/3s.
That’s the upside of compression-resistant neoprene, trade-secret jersey construction, and S-seal.
The suits don’t compress at depth. They don’t lose shape over time. They don’t turn into a soggy, stretched-out mess after a year.
They’re built for season after season.
3. Born from decades in the water and decades of manufacturing experience, every detail is deliberate – from each outer panel being individually measured to mould to your body, the dive pocket and loading pad to the silicon grip dots. This is trade-secreted hybrid tech built by those who live it.

MEET THE FOUNDER
Shark Eyes founder Shanan Worrall is a renowned West Australian waterman, known for his fearless big wave surfing and deep connection to the ocean. Born in Esperance in 1978 to a family of surfers, Shan’s life in the water began early – surfing, spearfishing, and diving from age six. He went on to become a champion angler, cray diver on the Abrolhos Islands, and abalone diver, earning accolades like WSL Tube of the Year and nominations in international big wave awards.
In 2013, a series of traumatic shark encounters – including a near-fatal attack on his friend and a personal loss in Gracetown – changed the course of his life. Suffering from PTSD, Shan stepped back from diving and shifted focus toward prevention, resilience, and education in the ocean environment. Shark Eyes was born from this experience, blending lived wisdom with innovation to protect and empower ocean-goers worldwide.
