Surfing Waves

I live in Melbourne, Australia where the water temps go as low as 10C/55F degrees and as high as 19C/66F in summer.

Been doing a bit of research on these fireskin's and was wondering whether a 4/3 would be suitable in Melbourne's summer (the water temperature typically gets to about 19C or 65F).

Apparently these wetsuits are warmer than others because it has this towel like material which wicks away excess moisture.

At this stage I am leaning more towards the 3/2 as it will be more suitable in the warmer seasons and at the same time can go down to 13C or 55F.

What do you guys reckon? Does anyone else have a fireskin they'd like to comment on?

The 4/3 could be used as an all year round suit when accompanied by a thermal rashie in winter. 10C isn't cold comparided to the UK waters so I would doubt you would get that cold.

with a 3/2 you would have to get another suit if your planning to be in alot over the winter and spring months.

Personaly I've had a custom 4/4 for the last 5 years. Using it all year round but Its showing its age now and not keeping me as warm in winter. So i'm retiring it to a Summer suit and investing in a nice flexi 5/4 when the seasons over and their cheap! :)

Hmm, apparently the Fireskin is the warmest wettie they've released so I was just wondering if a 3/2 Fireskin would be equivalent..

And you poms might have a better cold temperature tolerance as well!!
