anyone down in the deep south want an R2 wettie? (3 x 3.5 – super stretchy)

... still in plastic. Size L

it'd be too fucking warm up here. All I use is a 2mm short arm suit, and at times i sweat in that.

Come on one of you fatties step up. It’s a bargain.

Id buy it if were a 3x2

I like how the Brainwave states that "its still in the plastic" ... as if he hasn't rubbed his cock all over the thing.

Hatchie doesn't wear wetsuits in Sydney during winter. How core is that.

Sold fellas. to a lovely chap from Sydney.

maybe sydney isn't so bad after all.

Thought I might buy a new springy. The old ones still in reason nable nick but it's always been a bit stiff. Anyone tried the more up market Peak models?

Check out Zion wetsuits from the south coast. I swear by them.

I can’t believe how dissappointed I am in my independantsurfco 3/2 steamer.
It’s like a straight-jacket, thought it might free up a bit when wet, but no.
It’s a smidge small for me, probably an inch or so short in the arm and leg but it’s the biggest size they make and I’m only 6’ 2” but I do have Orangutan arms.
The rubber seems very stiff and unforgiving, possibly made worse by the taped seems inside and out. The fleecey lined area around the torso is really thick and stiff.
It’s a chest zip, got it on by myself but no way in hell could I get it off after a surf, needed help despite struggling for 5 minutes and even then my helper had to wrench fcuk out of the arm to get it over my elbow. Even the legs were a struggle to get off over my feet.
Quite happy to put it in a cupboard in the shed and never see it again. Weighs a ton when wet too. Starting to wonder if they sent me a 3/4 but there’s nothing on it to identify it.
Teach me for buying something untried online.

Wore my Xcel 3-2 again today. Super comfortable.

Well there's your problem

What do you prefer legion?

Right. I forgot it's Tard season.

well that would make it a back zip then wouldn't it? I'll give it a try next time, I believe someone here did it before.

a very volatile time, anything can happen

You do realise MM, if you got the wettie wrong way round, you'll be expected to surf at least one wave upside down.

You know what Offy, I think the same guy that put the wetty on backwards did exactly that!
