leave it to Julien Fillion.
Super smart guy. Turned Liquid Force around for sure.

That suit will do well in Europe.

Pretty cool looking and a good idea, but if I need a drysuit to go ride thats when I just go snowboarding.

That thing is baddass. I'm sure it sucks a little to swim in, but probably not more than a normal baggy dry suit from Ocean Rodeo.

Still bomber stuff, and less baggy!

Whole new website too!

Someone get back to me when they have a tall version of a dry-suit for someone that is 6'5".

Until then I will be happy with my Mutant wetsuit.

Cool looking but there's no way I'd use one. I wouldn't trust the hood if i got dragged in the water

It does look cool, but I still think it would be pretty damn hard to swim with. My guess is it would be a LOT worse than a regular drysuit. I wouldn't be caught dead in it because I'm afraid I'd be caught dead in it. Very Happy
