Re: that wetsuit discussion...
MM, I got the Independent surf co 4/3 and I concur with your initial assessments.
Mine is now in second season, and it has relaxed a little.
I can no get out of it all by myself.

Nearly that time of year again. Looking for a new steamer. What steamers are people using this long, harsh winter.
Re: that wetsuit discussion...
I'm going back to Xcel for a steamer shortly.
My current Quikkie one is at the end of it's life with tears and it was the worst wettie I have had in years. Have a Xcel 1 mm top and a 2mm springie which are both great quality and warm.

Pleased to hear that. I haven't had one before. Waiting for it to get cool enough to wear it. I've got a Peak 1mm long sleave top. It's a bit restrictive.

Re: that wetsuit discussion...
sorry to hear, that's no good.
Re: that wetsuit discussion...
I’m gonna get one of these.

Too cold for you BA but I had a 2/2 from them that has lasted 2 years and could use it again this year except the cat pissed on it. I’ll never buy a brand suit again.
Re: that wetsuit discussion...
Yeah I had a need suit a few years back. Didn’t like the fit. Definitely good value though.
I must have a weird body. Some suits fit me really well, others not so good.

Re: that wetsuit discussion...
Fair enough.There’s another mob from up here called the Independent Surf Company or something. I think Shearer reviewed one of their suits.

Re: that wetsuit discussion...
beany, xcel suits are still pretty good I reckon. Certainly plenty warm but maybe not quite the durability of pre-Billabong. Ridiculous prices too if you buy at full rrp
