How does it feel? It will fit looser a bit in the water, but if you can't touch your toes and raise your arms over your head easily it might be too tight. Tight is good in wetsuits, but not at the expense of freedom of movement. FWIW you can target/probably will drop a couple KG breaking that new suit in. :)

Seems like it fits from the pics. Actually just ordered a psycho 1 myself so I was researching their models. The only thing I'd worry about is that the neoprene in those 2 suits are different. The psycho is made out of their technobutter neoprene(lighter/stretchier) and the superfreak is their ultraflex neoprene. So it may not feel/fit exactly the same.

Like Big H said, it will loosen up a little bit in the water, but if it's restrictive you may want to try the next size up. However, IMO a xxl would leave you with too much excess neoprene.

Looks ok to me. Advice they gave me in my shop - if it takes you less than 5 minutes to fully get into it, it is too wide :)

You won't be in that pose standing straight up arms down to the side. Try bear hugging yourself and squat down to your butt touches the ground. If you hear something starting to tear, it's too small. ( the wetsuit not your muscles )

By the way, did you go try on a wetsuit at a local shop but then ordered it from another place on the internet ? ( also known as "Show Rooming" )

I am similar build, but have the xcel drylock tdc 3/2 in XL. I have dropped a little weight since buying it, 88.5kg to 83.9kg (195 lbs to 185lbs) and the suit still fits. I am about 185 cm (6'0.5'') tall
