Too huge after calf augmentation surgery? Maybe get a custom zipper backed lower leg à la a toddler suit.
Curious how STAB does a wetsuit test in Portugal in the fall.
3/2, 4/3, booties? Water is in the mid sixties.

Update on my recent Colby+ Hooded 4/3 purchase. Warmth is very good. Flexibilty, especially while paddling, very good. Dry time is very good, similar to my Isurus. If i hang it folded, then right side out it in the evening, it's mostly dry in the AM.
I'm mixed on the fit. The LS is good on the arm and leg length, even though I am an inch shorter on the size chart. But, I get some slight seeping in around the wrists and ankles which I'm wondering if this wouldn't be an issue if I went with the MS instead of LS as things have stretched out a bit. Torso and shoulders fit is good.
Cinch mechanisms on the chords loosen over time, so I'm tightening a few times a session.

Looks like you’re putting stress on those crotch seams. How they holding up? LOL
The 40 is probably considerably flexier; not sure about the 39.
@mundus I don't see anything on Crooked's website about key string/pocket. Is it just a loop under the collar or how does the key stash work on those suits?
Not much warmer but lighter and seems like it absorbs less water. Also more flexible.
the crooked website doesnt say if the use #40 or not
srface is all #40 and colby is a mixed
SRFACE Remix is made with 100% Yamamoto #40 neoprene and is fully double lined to give you the best of both worlds.
Like all Colby + wetsuits, it features Yamamoto #39 in the torso for durability, shape retention and warmth, and Yamamoto #40 in the shoulders and arms for added flexibility and freedom to reduce paddling fatigue. We use a custom-made jersey from the world's premiere jersey provider which has a silky hand feel with amazing stretch and resilience.
