Well, I just ordered another wetsuit. A built by measure 1.5mm Eliossub single lined high pants, closed jacket w/intergrated hood. I also ordered my wife a built by measure 2mm double lined high pants/jacket w/zip, no hood. Both in professional grade neoprene. Getting ready for the carribean I guess. -- and next summer.
I can't wait to see how stretchy that 1.5 mm suit is. I guess very fragile but I'm willing to deal with that for the comfort.

Just wanted to share my joy ;D

Yeah...buying new gear is fun ain't it? I just ordered a new Halcyon BP/Wing setup today. Smile

Fred,
Don't leave out the details, like who did you order from and how much :-)

Mark,

I ordered the wetsuits from Elios Sub over in Italy. Unbelievable - custom fit (you send them about 16 different measurements) professional neoprene priced at $145 EUR. for the type of suits I ordered + shipping it works out to be about $170 each U.S. I ordered mine with closed cell outside with some stretchy nylon elastic interior to help keep it from tearing and ordered my wifes 2mm with a superstretch interior (like my 3mm) and a nylon elastic outer to keep it from tearing so easily. Their custom fit economy neoprene, double lined is priced at $114 EUR. + shipping. Right now the EURO is almost equal to the USD, actually slightly less.

a good currency converter I've found is at

gp, congradulations! Let's go diving when you get it.

Hey GP, did you go AL or SS on the back plate? Congrats on the suit Fred. Happiness is getting new dive gear. Of course misery is getting the bill. :o

I went with SS.
