Got my new Flashbomb Heatseeker. Fuck it’s a quality suit. Guess it should be for $750 (retail). In the cupboard it goes.

So buttery! Word from industry people in the know it's better then yammy.

Glad to see you finally learnt some manners.

The one you have left after you hit a shallow reef, that is.

lol, the days of magazine hacks getting comped with free product are long gone.

I herald Carroll's review of the 1mm Quiksilver wetsuit as the official end of that era.

I pay for my shitt.

Buddy will vouch for me- I paid cash money for my second hand Volcom.

pretty shitty suit, tbh.

Great price though.

Steve did indeed pay for it.
Didn’t you get a free one from some no name brand that you did a review on a few years back?
But I think you were open about receiving the free suit.

Steve would take a free yammy for a favourable review quicker then you could say i have no integrity.
