    I love Xcel or Hyperflex styled suits. Xcel for sure if you can afford it, Hyperflex for a nice suit on the cheap.

    The Body Glove Vapor is the lightest driest and most durable wetsuit on the market.

    It's the only wetsuit I wear in all thicknesses. Do yourself a favor any buy a vapor.

    By the way,....its WATER REPELLENT!

    Yeah I really like BodyGlove's stuff. I just started riding for them, but I can get Xcel suits cheap through a surf shop. I am just wondering what other people have to say about this topic.

    If you ride for Body Glove, would you have to wear there suits? Why would you even be thinking about paying $ for another brand?

    It has hard because I am going straight through Bodyglove not a shop or a rep. It could be easier to get a just as nice suit from a shop close to you other than getting a suit shipped out from Cali. I like both suits a lot though.
