Default Winter Wetsuit

I know theres lots of threads about this subject already and iv read them all.

but.. what is the warmest winter wetsuit around the £100-£120 mark? i want the warmest, most comftable and flexible one as poss for the money.

iv heard good things about the psycho 2, but it seems to expensive. also heard good things about a rip curl fireskin, but the more i read it seems like the fireskin part is like some kind of technology that ripcurl incorperates into the sales jargon for all there suits. any info appreciated.

thanks

I have a psycho 2.... and well i doubt i can ever own anything else now! I cant even feel the water touch my skin... i'd love to know how it works because it baffles me!

Sorry i know this doesnt help you, the psycho 2 skinted me for months. Worth it though.

I know I look like a gimp wearing it but I really rate my Gul Drysuit.

I can head out on the boat in warm clothes and jump in and out of it in seconds to dock/launch/recover/wakeboard etc etc.....

Never get cold in it and it doesn't let a drop of water in. It also has neoprene cuffs ont he neck and wrists so is nice and comfy, unlike suits back in the day.

Think I paid about £170 which is entry level as far as dry suits go but it does everything I've asked of it... I'd strongly recommend this route.

Have got to agree with tower boy. 5 off us all own dry suites and even on the coldest wetest day when its taking an age for your set to come along you are warm and DRY
