Re: that wetsuit discussion...
I’m an M straight up in most suits except a Quik, who obviously make Ms for taller and weaker people than me.
The suit I want right now is a 3/2 zipperless Flash Bomb which I think is infinitely the best temperate water surfing wetsuit available. I wonder if Rip Curl will just give me one.

They will now.
Re: that wetsuit discussion...
I think plugging it on realsurf like that will be more than worth it for them.

Re: that wetsuit discussion...
life is really too short to spend time making a monkey's butt out of yourself wrassling a zipper less wetsuit for the purely placebo effect on performance they offer.
Can I get an amen on that?

steve have you noticed how you basically can't get a high end wetsuit with a back zip any more? Forget all the other surf industry shenanigans that's the scandal that you should be writing about, the fact that if you want a back zip you have to put up with 95% non-stretch neoprene and shitlock seams

Jordy Smith is rocking the back zip.
they are coming back around Godsave.
as more and more people wake up to the hoax that has been perpetuated on them.
This will be bigger than thalidomide babies, bigger than smoking.

Re: that wetsuit discussion...
I hope you're right steve. Having followed blindly, parroting the party line on chest zips for a number of years I firmly believe that they are in fact significantly worse than back zips - a struggle (comparatively) to get on and off, no adjustment around the neck and any perceived benefit of a zipless paddle zone is outweighed by the mass of material and zipperage on your chest. I used to think they're warmer but they're not. As you say, a total fucken hoax introduced solely for the purposes of the surf industry's bottom line
