Hey guys. Just wanted to get some opinions!
I have been looking at these two wetsuits and can't really decide on which one.

http://www.dogfunk.com/xcel-hawaii-4-3-infiniti-full-zip-wetsuit-mens

Would it be worth it to go up and couple bucks and get a 3/2mm with drylock or get the 4/3mm?

I don't actually know what any of the wetsuit terminology means either besides thickness and seams...
So please enlighten me haha.

I wakeskate in the Panhandle of Florida and waters here get around 50 degrees in December.

Also, I'm not very fond of the cold Razz

Thanks!

I have that 4/3 and its super super warm(for up here). In FL , mid 50's I wouldn't even need a suit if its sunny. But I would think a 3/2 would work fine. You would probably only need a 4/3 if you can't handle the cold at all.

Thanks for the replies!

I can handle the cold pretty well so I decided on the 3/2 wetsuit and just got some booties to go with it.

One of my friends surfs year round in a 3/2 drylock as well and he suggested me to get some booties since his feet freeze off ha.

Thanks again!
