This wetsuit is the bomb. It'll keep you super warm all throughout the British winter, and thanks to the clever entry system and the lack of a back zip, they'll be no nasty flushes. But thanks to that same entry system, boy is this a bitch to get in and out of. I've been assured that it gets easier with time, and I have to admit it is becoming a tiny bit easier each time I use it, but still, you will be the one doing a stupid why-won't-this-thing-come-off-my-shoulders dance in the car park in this wettie.
In terms of features, it has everything you would expect from a top end steamer - 100% super stretch neoprene, super fancy glued, blindstitched, liquid sealed no-water-can-pass-them seams, and extra warm furry wind-proof panels. And it works. I can stay in the sea for hours longer than I could before, and I hardly even get wet underneath this bad boy. But I do have one gripe...
Why do the men get a 6x4 version with an in-built hood, and we only get the 5x3 with no hood? Hmm C Skins? I know the men are probably a larger market, but we go in the same sea. In fact, don't ladies suffer the cold more then men?
Either way, it's a great suit, and it comes highly recommended from all the boys and girls I know who've got one.
