    yo, if it's as cold as it was this morning at 6am (31 deg!), then the 5/4/3 is coming out for the dp session.

    wetsuit warehouse carries them as well as the 5/4/3 Amp. I picked up the 5/4/3 last winter after a 42 degree (water temp) in my O'Neil Mutant 4/3. The suit held up fine for an hour but by the time I got out, I was COLD. The Hyperflex, is lighter, stretchier and warmer than the Mutant.

    If you go with Matuse, size up 1 size. Their suits are really nice but run small. I have the hoplite 3/2.
