Im rocking trunks and a rash guard(longsleeves that is) and hat of course you loose 75% of your body heat thru you head so i got my 59/50 fitted size 7 1/2 on so no water gets in my wrv long sleeve rash guard and my new board shorts and i must say im normally nice and toasty on the warmer days i loose the board shorts just the rg( rash guard ) and the fitted , but on the colder days i rock a gold chain , gold contains some rare elements that heat the body up so its like wear a portable heater around your neck and i wear this outfit all year round January to december

x2.....Thinking about getting that H-BOMB soon. I had a chance to try one out. Makes a HUGE difference in weight compared to the 5/4/3. And I was toasty.

I thought about the H-Bomb too, but also thought about how new it is. Still may be some kinks to work out... Where did you get a chance to try one?

Haha....I said the same exact thing last year. waiting for the kinks to work out. Now it's about 1 year later and seems to be good. I only got to use it once but my buddy has been using it since mid Nov. and loves it.

i've been considering the h-bomb as well. it seems to make a lot of sense, despite the price, due to the fact that you could eliminate a couple suits from the line-up w/ it. i wonder how fragile &/or durable it is compared to the f-bomb or e-bomb series suits (which have proven to be VERY durable for me)
