I ordered a rash quard, I am new to surfing

Postby Jeffrely » Wed May 16, 2012 6:29 am

It said to use my shirt size, which is Mens-Medium. I am 5 5, 125 pounds.
1.Is a Mens-Medium too big?
2.Should I have settled for a small??

If i did this wrong then i basically lost $40, shirt + shipping.

I don't think you were rash, it should fit. Next time go to a surf shop if you have one nearby and try one for fit!
Whatever you do don't try to buy a wet suit on line!
When you get to the surfboard stage, check out boards with someone who knows :wink:

I don't think you were sensitivity, it should fit. When go to a look through shop if you have one nearby and try one for fit!

When you get to the panel stage, analyze out boards with someone who knows

Hey Edwardmaya if you are going to quote me, bloody well get it right. :unuts:
It could be an online translator going back and forth, or it could be the Mayan calendar showing it's first kicks of TEOTWAWKI :shock:
