Mine 2p for what it is worth. Never dived neo, I wanted something comfortable diving and after with minimum of faff to get on/off. Have a tri-lam. It came with Otter 200g undersuit which I find very bulky/buoyant. I am an ex-rugby player (finished as front row) so have my own insulation! I actually changed to Guinness fleece/jogging bottoms to save lead.

I now use 4th element Xerotherm base layer and this is fine for 10C water, but as I say I don't feel the cold!

Obviously make sure you get training before you use one. Don't want any feet first ascents!
