X-cel 3/2 Hawaii

Andrew Masi, Six does sound a little excessive. I'll have to check on it when i get home but i was definitely letting the water flush though my suit when i would get up.

I wear an Oneill 3/2 for early spring and fall riding. I guess that would be around 5-10C water temps. It was pretty low end compared to a psycho 2, but it does the job and still has some pretty tech stuff on it. The only time I get water inside is if I don't have the neck velcro strap adjusted tight enough.

Hahah that wetsuit builder was fun though, mines retro!

I highly recommend any of the Rip Curl suits, be it a hot skin, a top, spring, or a fullsuit, currently the all around best wet suits most flexible and keep you pretty much totally dry. I know your thinking you work for the company, well sort of, i manage a rip curl store, but ive surfed for quite a few years and worn a lot of different suits, these just can't be beat.

I just got a new spring and full, out grew my full from last year.

It's a 3/2 fully sealed, front/chest zip, elastomax Rip Curl E-bomb, size is a MS Medium Short, will let it go for 175 obo if anyone is interested.

PM for pics!
