I tried on a zipless in a change room and came very close to a panic attack. Ended up embarrasingly having to go out into the shop and ask for help, arms all twisted and tangled up.

Of course they do. There are standards that must be maintained after all.

i have a zipperless. Not too bad to get in and out of, but leaks badly on a wipeout. Fine for warm water. I wouldn't get one for winter.

Saw a girl wearing one of these this morning. Apparently it's a designer wetsuit. Looked even brighter in real life. Really high cut in the ass region. I imagine this is what Pet wears in the surf.

Has anyone tried the Quiksilver AG47 steamers? The Quiksilver Ebay store has the zipperless 3:2 version for $240, down from $400, and the chest zip version for $300, down from $500.

Might be time for a new steamer. The old quickie has been great. Maybe one more season. Bought a Ripcurl springy about a year ago but haven't worn it much. It's not as flexible as the quikkie steamer. My thermal vest has been great though.

If you want a cheap Quiksilver steamer then have a look at their Ebay store as they are discounted there.

Wetsuits fat Cnut sizes only left in steamers (XL to 3XL) so I missed out...

I still don't buy the "official" narrative about 9/11. Oh sure, it happened, fcuk yeah. But who and why and how I'm, not convinced it was what we've been told.
