I’m sure it will stretch a bit. Or maybe I should just pull out the old booger and get deep
Yeah it did for me. It's sweet as now.

Put the booger down and get on that puddle jumper
Did you get the medium?
I tried mine on again. I have a bit of a rugby neck and feel like I'm being choked out.
Might sell it for $100, tags still attached if anyone wants a backup
I'll take it Buddy.

Just get a dawn patrol back zip
Pretty good suit.

No doubt the mot flexible suit I now own is a 2mm Zipperless Isurus with premium Yamamoto rubber.

I'm almost tempted to pay the massive premium to get a new one.
You still disagree with their 2mm is as warm as a 3mm spiel?

I'm going to get one for the shoulder season, considering whether the 2mm is enough.
Yeah, thats BS.

The 2mm is as warm as 2mm.

The rubber is very, very buttery and flexible though, and has good durability.

Couldn't imagine a 2mm being warm enough for NorCal.

Sold.
It’s a chest zip though.
I’m going out to lismore today, can chuck it in the car and drop it on the way home if you’re around.

I can't afford a backzip now, they are attracting a premium because people are waking up.

That’s very funny. The “seamless” and zipperless Rip Curl is premium.

I’ve been team medium for a long time but fear I could be heading into large-short territory.
Or even worse, that limbo in between space.
Water was a bit fresher after I saw you Steve.

So Steve is willing to pay more for the correct color!

I concur. People underestimate the importance of color of equipment when it comes to performance

Volcom is ok.
Fits me perfectly.

Bit of a ball ache to get in and out of . Nice buttery rubber.
Certainly not the warmest steamer I’ve ever had.
Can’t complain for the price.
