Re: that wetsuit discussion...

Re: that wetsuit discussion...
Zen zip is different, better
Re: that wetsuit discussion...
Needs wetties.
Anyone with good or bad experiences with them?

I find them pretty average to be honest, decent at first but not great memory in the neoprene and not that warm. The rubber on the neck also deteriorating pretty badly.

Re: that wetsuit discussion...
I had an early iteration which was as Loof describes. They are apparently now better by a few accounts

Re: that wetsuit discussion...
Been giving my new excell springy a thorough workout lately. Could have worn my steamer yesterday though. I find the brand nice and stretchy. Good price and quality.

Mine was until the chest zip came away at the stitching and then happened again after getting repaired. The material just keeps on ripping.

They’re a lot better than they used to be and I like supporting them. Great customer service too. Although their SS 2mm steamer is $220. I saw an O’Neill in Sideways on the weekend for $170. Think I’ll go the O’Neill this winter.

Re: that wetsuit discussion...
I bought a couple of steamers online a few years ago. Primarily for junior but the price was so good I bought one for myselfas well. Both Billabong from Canada I think. Identical wetsuits but one was made in Thailand and one in China. Mine fell apart at the seams. His lasted till he grew out of it. Not much redress from OS.

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.

Re: that wetsuit discussion...
Nope. Chest 2mm. If anyone knows their size I’m happy to buy and post. Sideways is ridiculously cheap. Mostly last years models. But who gives a shit.
Re: that wetsuit discussion...
I was just in there the other day.
Looks like I'll have to go back and dig through what they've got on offer.
