Sisstr
Sisstrevolution at Balsa, the Californian womens surf brand and sister label to Vissla. The range covers bikinis, boardshorts, swimsuits and tees, built with surfing in mind rather than sunbathing (which is useful when the UK pretends to be summer for five minutes). Eco-focused fabrics across most of the swim range, cleaner graphics than a lot of the womens surf market, and fits that actually stay put when a wave comes through. Posted UK-wide from Porthcawl.

Built for surfing, not posing
Sisstrevolution came out of Vissla's team in California and pulls the same Creators and Innovators ethos into womens surf kit. Recycled fabrics where it matters, proper seams where it matters more, and fits cut for paddling, duck-diving and actually getting to your feet. No slipping, no adjusting mid-set.
Bikinis, boardshorts, tees
We stock the tops and bottoms separately so you can mix sizes (most surfers aren't a matched set), plus boardshorts and the odd tee or rashguard. Understated colours and prints, nothing neon, nothing branded across the chest.

Worn at Rest Bay
Summer bikini season in Porthcawl is a tight window, usually somewhere between mid-June and late August, and Sisstr is one of the brands our regulars grab when it finally turns up. Small range, sensibly priced, posted UK-wide.
