@@andreas.619 It's not like thread disintegrates when it comes in contact with water. It's the same stuff that clothes are made of, and for all I know they can be washed with water several times. Wouldn't stretch be good in wetsuits?
@@yrrahyrrah I hear you, those are the reasons that I got when looking up how to do it. I've actually repaired my suit about 5 times with floss and its holding very well.
slow it down and explain what you are doing next time..hard af to tell what you were doing..plus you sped the video up in places..why bother if people can't tell wtf you are doing
The reason he is using floss is because its waterproof and doesn't tear easily nor does it stretch like regular cotton
This is gonna save my keister! Just discovered a little rip in my suit. Thanks for making this video!
Dental floss!!! Genius thankyou
Why dental floss? What about fishing line?
good point..i can see floss tearing easily
@@psalmsurfer1 fishing line will tear through the wetsuit
Why not regular sewing thread?
Floss doesn't stretch and its waterproof

You do not stitch single lined neoprene....
Yes!
That’s not a blind stitch
Patagonia has a pretty good warranty and would have repaired it or replaced it for free.
