About Pinnacle Wetsuits and Drysuits
PINNACLE is the end result of over 30 years of development. The evolutionary process began back in 1969 when John Gordon made his first wetsuit. Since then, John and his team have been constantly honing and developing products, creating the world's first wrist seals, ripple knees and heat-reflective laminates (forerunner to today's titanium lining) in the process. John has worked with NASA and the European Space Agency and designed drysuits for the British and Dutch navies. He resides on the European committee writing directives for wetsuits, drysuits and other marine safety equipment. John's specialty has been identifying obstacles and finding the right TECHNOLOGY to overcome them. His string of design awards pay testament to his insight, ingenuity, and tenacity.
As the company has grown and evolved, it became the Pinnacle that you see today. The spirit of IMAGINATION and invention continues with the introduction of Merino?, an internationally patented wetsuit-lining perfect for the 21st century. The love of adventure, insightful imagination, and practical experience has led to today's Pinnacle.
Wetsuits and drysuits are complex garments. They are, at their core, survival suits, regulating our body temperature in a cold harsh environment.
But, as sport divers, we also demand that our suits are comfortable, stylish, high-quality and low-maintenance. The main reason we wear a wetsuit or a drysuit in cold water is simply to keep warm. Ensuring that our body temperature remains stable is not only pleasant - it is downright vital. WARMTH is the single most important priority for us at Pinnacle, followed closely by COMFORT, because there's no point being warm if your mobility and enjoyment are restricted.
Pinnacle takes the best available design features, production techniques and materials to create QUALITY wetsuits, drysuits, and accessories that are built to last.

Wet or dry, hot or cold, Lavacore helps control your core temperature longer, whether worn as a stand alone garment, or under your wetsuit or clothing.
