I concur, Heatwave. They are local, reasonably priced and fit. They also have
a wide variety of stock sizes (long, stocky etc) that allow a good fit without
getting a custom fit. i.e myself am 6' 240 and am in a xxls (extra extra large
stocky) that is 3 years old and great. I understand that the neoprene
techology has got a lot better that what I have, and the 3 year old stretchy stuff
was a huge improvement over previous suits I have had.
