A quick google search suggests they only make soft-tops :?

They sell them in the Warehouse here in NZ (where everything is sh1t, lasts 5 minutes, and is made by 7yo slaves in China). They are big foamy things, I wouldn't even buy one on for my kids.

Out of desperation I hired one on holidays, total waste of time and money, AVOID!

I have a Body Glove 4/3 wetsuite and it is toasty as can be but a mother to get off. It sticks like glue. I have never heard of a board made by them. I would take to heart what the posts have been saying and stay clear
