For the record. I hammered the suit on the north coast. Sent it back within a year. They took the zipper out, boots off, seals off, and put them on a brand new suit. Gave me new valves too. No charge, fast turn around. This was my third suit and I have had nothing but A+++ experience with O’Neill service. They charge almost nothing for repairs, the repairs are seamless, and their fast. I even sent them an older suit and to replace the knee's ($15) and they taped all the seams on the suit like the newer models for me too. Incredible customer service. Wetsuits are tough and have awesome zipper designs too. I got 7mm Henderson hyperstreatch and what a piece of junk. It is basicly a thick tropical suit. Sure the neoprene is stretchy but the design and components are awful. It has the cheapest plastic zipper with no seal (For $400 I expect more Henderson). Oneills have a heavy metal slider, with heavy rubber backings that keep the water out. Plus they have proven very durable and tough on the rocky north coast of CA.
Happy O’Neill customer since 96'.
