fair enough. I always just huck my keys into the bushes so I can have a little treasure hunt after every session.

Got a bunch of new buells a few months ago.
Rb1 plus is a current fave. Super warm and fits great.

I put mine around my neck and then down my back, in between my shoulder blades. Don't really notice it.
Er, under your wetsuit, like, where?
I have a fob for my vehicle. I take the emergency key out and put in my wetsuit pocket. I have a buddy that has used a shoe string for his key (wears around his neck). I place the fob, minus emergency key, in a faraday bag and stash out of site in said vehicle. This one does the trick. Hope this helps.
Maybe it's buried a hundred pages back, but what do the inside of your yammie, luxury wetsuits look like?
I feel like the budget suit options are stuck in early 00s tech with these linings.
Cyber's website is straight out of 1998, so do any of you have a pic of the liner in your favored high end 'prene?
Thanks

feral is the most bare bones, ime.
bit more going on witb isurus and you can tell sliding it on/off. I’m quite fond of their kidney warmer patch.
I guess this is what I'm getting at.
$589 Isarus
Volcom- $189 on sale. Most sizes
$469 Rip Curl F series. They offer another step up with no stitches and the E series with what sounds like a lesser lining
I couldn't find a pic of the inside of an oneill
Rip Curl, recent controversy to the contrary, appears to still be all pink on the inside?

While a bit heavy, I never had an issue with my Rip Curl Fbomb.
Well, the zipper corroded, but that's probably on me.
But I've never been in a luxury suit
Wanted to try the yammie hype.
Ordered a Colby+ for myself. Ordered a Feral for the wifey.
Very similar suits. Yamamoto 40 in the arms/shoulders is very stretchy. Rest of the body not quite as stretchy, but who cares. No fuzzy liner on the inside of either suit. That plus the rubber makes them insanely lightweight compared to other suits. That's the obvious advantage which where I'm at could be nice for some of my long hikes back to the car with a wet suit in the pack after a surf. Colby has liquid rubber seams on the outside of the suit chest down with inside taped seams on the arms for more stretch I guess. Feral has inside taped seams on the legs and just stitched and glued everywhere else for ultimate stretch perhaps not as durable? Not sure though as that liquid rubber has been a source of failure on suits in the past for me. Remains to be seen. Colby has a visor on hood. Feral does not. Some people care about that. Both bare bones but very well constructed, comfortable suits. Hard to go wrong with either. 5'11.5" 180+lbs. Large colby fits great. Have not surfed in them yet, but they feel great. We've had xcel, patagonia, billabong, ripcurl, o'neill in our house in the past/currently. Biggest thing is will we miss the fuzzy liner?

Yes, liquid welds of the past used to crack, then pinch.
And I worry about the lack of liner as well.
