Cheap quality at a low price

I bought several of these and they all have the same problem. lightning breaks. This is a situation where one side of the zipper comes loose, so the zipper only connects on one side and doesn't "tear" the two sides together. You can try whatever you want to fix this. It's not going to happen. It's a cheap wetsuit. If you're a surfer, you need something better anyway. I was just trying to save money but I need to spend the money on a proper suit. Do not buy.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons

Worst wetsuit I have ever had

Worst wetsuit I've ever had. I've been surfing for 10 years and this is the worst result even for a cheap suit. Washes off instantly on all seams and the back zip opens fully when the duck dives into big waves. I even felt the need to call Oneill and they told me it was more or less my fault for buying their cheap suit. I am shocked that this wetsuit got such a good rating from Revain. I would recommend buying the Quicksilver Syncro range if you are looking for a good value suit, even if it isโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Everything is great!
Cons
  • A few little things

Good for the big ones

So full disclosure, this is my first wetsuit. So I'm not an expert. But I'm a big guy and I was worried about finding something that really suits me. I'm only 5'11" but I'm 285 with a 50" bust. Neck 19.5 inches and very broad shoulders. I chose this suit because they had more sizing options. I bought XXXXL in shorts. Sits perfectly. The back strap is long enough for me to close it without help and it works great. I swam in 60 degree water and felt warm. Very flexible and easy to move (I'mโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • Some bugs

Fits well. cheap quality.

6ft 4in 190 lbs. The tall stature fits like a glove. That's the best thing about this wetsuit. No matter how you find yourself in 60 degree water, you'll soon see why this wetsuit is only $100. cold water, oh joy. Other wetsuits I have that have a 3:2 aspect ratio at least block water ingress, on this suit the seams just aren't up to par with a quality suit. 3:2 shouldn't be that cold in the California spring. Definitely a good choice for summer, but that's about it. You get what you pay forโ€ฆ

  • Very Good Value

This suit smells like skunk all the time.

I read some comments about this bad smelling wetsuit and thought maybe they don't know what neoprene smells like. I was wrong, this suit smells the worst of skunk. It stinks in every room, bag, or trunk you try to put it in to mask the smell. No amount when removed by washing or processing. It has something in common with what it was made of. I strongly advise against purchasing this product. I can't believe a brand like this will keep selling it. They don't have to have a sense of smell orโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Frequency

Great costume! in Sports

For the price this is an amazing wetsuit. The fit is great all round and although the wrists and ankles are snug, they're not too tight for me. (My ankles are large, my wrists are probably average for men). The suit was easy to put on and take off. The soft forefoot is a big plus as there is sometimes ground or rock contact when diving; it feels very protective on contact. The underwater tunnel also passed and I had to make several turns - when I scraped the edges of the cliff, the suitโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Negative gift

Great entry level wetsuit

I was looking for a good wetsuit at an affordable price and from a reputable company so I settled on the O'Neill Reactor 3/2. The fabric is excellent, very elastic, the seams are impeccable. The zippers are sturdy and although I'm not very flexible, I can zip them up with no problems. I needed a wetsuit for kayaking (especially surfskiing) so I bought a size up so I had a little more shoulder room to row and back to sit. It worked great, keeping the cold water off my skin and keeping me warmโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • No gun

The wetsuit started falling apart after the second use. (Next to the zip, top right on the back.) Unfortunately, this was a few weeks past the return deadline, so I'll stick with it. The suit is still functional as the tear doesn't reach the skin, but I don't expect it to last more than a season, if that. I think for 100โ‚ฌ you get what you pay for. I bought a medium tall which is 6ft 3in and weighs 165lbs. Originally bought an LT but the Large was too big in the torso) **Updated** I also wantedโ€ฆ

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • poorly thought out
