Wetsuits are for hot water :wink:
If the water is cold and you plan to dive in it.. Get hold of a drysuit (and proper training) :p

Below 60F i wouldnt want to dive in a wetsuit myself..

Been there, done that many times before I got a drysuit. It works, but brrrrrrrr! I guess some just don't get as cold as others. There was an article/interview written not long ago where the founder of Body Glove (who went on to found a company producing commercial diving helmets) mentioned surfers in So. Cal. in the early days thought wet suits were only for divers. I can't imagine being in 58-60 degree water wearing only a bathing suit...even on the surface on a board.
