ooh this all sounds pretty interesting. I find it really hard to find a suit to fit, being a little on the diddy side. Fell in love with the Scubapro 5mm but found it too big on the shoulders (and chest ).
I shall have to have a go with the Waterproof ones and see how they come up size wise.
Must admit, I had heard that the surfing ones, whilst lovely and flexible, are not quite as durable as those made for diving. I have seen some great looking surf wet suits though... I agree about the one you have pictured... a bit too "Batman" for me

Kathy,

I'm prepared to "take one for the team" and spend a week in Egypt diving to test out my 5mm (damm I'm selfless )- though I must add it's the blokes version!

Will let you know how it gets on... but am in the pool on sat with it got to try my new BCD so will take the suit in too

Cheers
Neil

Got any pics? ... of the suit... no not you in the suit

Do waterproof have a website? I missed this stand. Sounds interesting.

Never seen them in the UK, but you can get them online at

Larry will sort you out

Alright, alright no need to rub it in. I of course have got to wait until September to see how mine fares

But yes, will be very interested to hear how you get on with your new suit in the red sea....

See ya
