Pinnacle 3mm Seal Merino Titanium Jumpsuit
Rating: Best wet suit Ive ever had 8/9/2009

Ive owned about 6 wet suits of various weights and manufacturers and have been "OK" with most of them. I used this suit this weekend in water temps down to about 65F. Noticeably warmer than my old 3mm. Much easier to get on and off. Im 5-11 and 195 pounds. I bought the XL and found it fits comfortably. Sleeves and legs are about an inch or more longer than necessary, but that leaves more room for flex - worked well and covered boot tops and went well under gloves. The only problems I noticed were the thick spine pad takes getting used to - especially hard while riding in boat - not too noticable in the water. The other problem is the velcro that holds the leash to the thumb loop below the zipper is lame - wont stay hooked, because leash is a little short and velcro is not "sticky" enough.

I started to throw it away after the buckles flipped open a couple of times - dring a dive. I replaced buckle system with velcro - easier to adjust and doesnt come loose.

Perfect for the kids, especially at the discounted price. Lets them join the activities and teaches responsibility for their own equipment. Would be nice if bouyancy was slightly positive.
