    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

    rip curl 5/4/3 w/ 5mil boots & 3mil gloves (5 finger...i HATE mitts & claws w/ a passion).

    haven't gotten cold in it yet & doubt i will, unless the air is really cold. i was actually sweating in it the other day after school...

    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.
