From this form, I am certain only on last option.
And I thought customs here are idiots. At least I only had to explain what certain items are via phone (I'm not sure designated officer even knows how to swim)

Yeah, I had to ask what to check.. idk what I'm doing. He said it was good.

It might have been hung up for a few days but they were very responsive once they sent the form.

Mine should be here tomorrow... Cleared customs, but I don't see anything about paying for it... So interested to see how that goes...

Got mine yesterday!!!!

Tried it on. It's completely different than a neo suit. That will take a little getting used to. Loaded the Rolock 90's in all of maybe 15 min. Can't wait to get a dive in.

Good things come to those who wait…and wait…

it is completely different than neoprene but you’ll pick it up quickly.

I am never one to post pictures of myself... hopefully this doesn't cause to much of a stir and I get an overwhelming amount of dm's.. sorry ladies, already taken!! We all know it would just be for my body anyway..

Pics are with the 250 undergarment on. I also had 2 T shirts and a pair of work pants under that... so might be why it felt a little tight!

To me it feels a little tighter than I thought, I am really glad I got the extra room although it doesn't fell like a lot of extra room. Or maybe I've gained 10 lbs since ordering.. hard to gauge a few days after turkey day. It will take a lot of getting used to. I didn't have braces on my last suit. I did already tear a small hole in the undersuit at the shoulder with the zipper but I'm not crazy about the undersuit... I might stick with my 4th Element stuff. There is an attachment at the docking point of the zipper I can see that being pulled some, not sure why they didn't use a more heavy duty attachment there. I had boots on my last suit and I'm not sure how I feel about the socks. Of to get some paddle boots as @stuartv suggested. They are on sale right now.

And it's raining.. so probably not getting a dive in today

TSCA is the Toxic Substances Control Act under EPA. They basically just want to know if you’re bringing chemical stuff into the US. Believe it or not, MDF also falls under that due to the formaldehyde content.

That pocket doesn’t contain anything for TSCA. Just disclaim it aka doesn’t apply. I deal with TSCA daily.
