Hi there,
Anyone have any suggestions for women's suits that tend to be longer that average through the legs?
I have an impending liveaboard trip over on Big Island at the end of this month, and for the past couple of weeks I've been trying to track down a good 7mm wetsuit or 5 to 7mm semi-dry that will actually fit me. I've tried on a few (XCEL and Camaro) that didn't work out so I've been eating shipping costs.
Currently I'm diving in an Aqualung aquaflex 7mm but it's gotten a bit crushed (and it's 2"-3" too short for me) and I've been getting cold on one or two dives at a time. I don't think it's going to work for me on 5 dives a day, and I really want to be warm and enjoy myself on the liveaboard.
I am relatively tall (5'6") and skinny, I'm very small framed. Going by most manufacturers size charts I fall in the XS range on measurements and weight, and the small range on height.
Most people here dive in 3mm or less so shops don't carry what I'm looking for, so getting to try on in a shop isn't happening.
Thanks for any suggestions!
