Surfing Waves

I am looking to buy my first wetsuit for surfing in New York. I will be surfing June-Oct and figure a 3/2 should be sufficient.

I've been looking at the suits below, any thoughts or other suits I should be looking at? Looking to spend ~$150.

Since you've picked your price range the real advice to you is to go somewhere you can try them on.
Buying wetsuits on line is challenging as although they say the sizes, they can be different on.
Hence trying them, what you want in seams and stitching is important. If you figure a 3X2 well and good. Have a read of the ones you have posted, somebody on the forum might help but trying the fit and brand comfort, that really is your call.

While im still a novice i can tell you a couple of things from my wetsuit buying experience because i was able to talk with some experienced and nice people who pointed me in the right way.

As said you have to try it. Besides size and the actual shape of the suit, materials used, type of neoprene, type of fit, etc. may influence if you are comfortable with it.

I discovered that a 3 2 doesnt necesarily mean how much of the suit is 3 and how much 2 and sometimes thats just an average. So that may be important for you if you are using the suit in a wide temperature range.

Also the same suit model changes over the years, so if you try or someone tells you something about x model from x year
that doesnt necesarily means the next model is the same regarding fit and other aspects, you wont see that posted online.


Good luck shopping.
