Looking for good 5mm wetsuit...

I'll be getting myself a Pinnacle merino lined whatever in the late spring, so check it out.

Based on the hood I have on my drysuit, it's The thing to have.

I just got a Bare Velocity 5/4 and I like it a lot. Hard to beat the price for this quality as well.

Is this the one??........free shipping for a while if so.....click link...

Pinnacle Fusion 5/4 has been under the ice with me. By far the best wetsuit I've ever had on.

Another vote for the 5/4 Bare Velocity! I bought mind from divetank.com for ~$175 about 2 years ago for the springs and gulf. When you compare the price and features, it's a winner. Based on my experience w/ the Bare 5/4 I also bought a 7mm Bare Artic last year for those 50-60F dives.

Yup, that's it! I have the 3/2mm version and love it...

Pinnacle Merino-Elatiprene 5, pretty much built for what you want, just be aware, that suit feels more like a 6-maybe 6.5 than a 5 in warmth, but very flexible.
I normally dive the Seal (3mm Merino lined) that I can wear down into the mid 60's comfortably. I would image the 5mm may get you into the mid 50's, but may be too warm in mid 70's

I regularly dive my BARE Velocity 5/4 in the local PA quarries. I've dove it in the deep end of gilboa, OH and felt fine. then again I have a freakishly high tolerance for cold water.

Do you wear it when you are typing out over 1,200 posts? Or when you have done 50 dives in the last 14 years?
