    Nope paper bags. Plastic bags kill fish.

    [QUOTEsomeone needs to make a shoehorn type deal for getting out of your suit.

    all you guys that are still wearing back zips are kidding yourselves. chest zips keep you so much warmer it's a joke.[/QUOTE]

    Aren't shoehorns for putting shoes on? And I have to agree that the chest zip is warmer (though my patagonia back zip is damn warm 3mil used to get me through all but the coldests days, if it only had a hood.... ), just something about not having a draft or drip on your back makes all the difference.

    I got it, since mostly suction is the problem, what if we they put a nossle somewhere on the suit , say just underneath the zipper on the chest zips, where you could hook it up to one of those air pumps that plugs into your cars lighter and inject air into the suit keeping it away from your body and for those that have $ to burn and prefer comfort on a cold day we could make our own pump that pumps hot air!

    ad hominim....

    well, your unreasonably hostile attitude towards certain surfers makes your perspective questionable.... besides, since my back zip has a liner that slips over my head that essentially covers zip area, i have no issue there. YOUR back zip must have sucked. MINE is AWESOME...hahhahaha
