Thu Oct 06, 11 9:31 am Cold weather here = need new wetsuit, recommendations? |
|

With the advent of cooler NW temp's, anyone have personal favorites for wind wetsuits? I'm a Pro Motion guy, but that suit has seen a lot of wear and tear & needs replacing. Recommendations are much appreciated? |

NPX ZEALOT 543.
Do NOT get the wind skin! it falls apart....The normal one is legit though.
bamboo charcoal liner dries super fast and doesn't stink like a normal wetsuit. _________________ www.youtube.com/c/christianjohnsons |

Hands down Oneil Mutant, the most comfy suit I have every worn and the build quality is top notch. Best part is it comes with 2 neck pieces, one with a hood and one without. |

Housing lending rates are at a historic low. Refi your house at under 4%. . .that should allow one to put a down payment on a new toasty warm Patagucci aka Patagonia suit (wool lined. . .superlative craftmanship, and awesome warranty). |

I agree with Chooch! After selling all sorts of brands of wetsuits all summer, I like the Oneill Mutant! I am thinking about buying a 5/4 to keep me warm all year round. Having the option to have an integrated hood or not makes it a really versatile suit and the construction/seam welds are pretty good too! Gorge Performance in SW has them for $350 which isn't a bad price either! My 2 cents. _________________ Live to kite another day |
