Wetsuit Help

Postby Laguna » Mon Nov 14, 2005 1:50 pm

IIm not sure what it is about the winter wetsuits but after trying most of them on in the shops, they all felt a lot tighter than my summer suite. I recently bought the billabong gold solution winter suit Medium size and fits just right, I can get my rash vest on underneath it too, althought it can feel a little tight after having it on a while.

Is it just something I should be able to settle into or do you think I need a different size? The charts say I should be medium and a large would be too baggy and not tight then, so I think it cld b right and is just something I gotta get use too.

Anyone else had a problem with picking the right size?Is it meant to be a tight fit? I have room to move my arms about and paddle and its tight all over.

Winter suits are thicker and have less give in them. Once you are in the water it will loosen up a bit.
