There are couple people who've mentioned they are looking for suits.

You ain't gonna find a better deal than this:

http://www.tribonzai.com/

They are closing out their 2002 products. $100, no tax, free shipping. I just got an xterra vortex full-suit today ( ordered it last week ). It's as advertised, brand new, and far cheaper than you're going to find anywhere. Full suits and farmer johns ( sleeveless ).

Hurry before they sell out, if you're looking for one.

Whoa! That's an awesome deal. I may have to do it. Any women who can offer some advice as to sizing? I'm 5'6" and 145, so I overlap between med and large. Whaddya say?

Great link!!!

Sadly, they are not offering any medium sleeved suits. I'm 5'11" male and right now 170 lbs, but will probably end up in the 165 range as I lose more of this beer gut. According to xterra this is smack in the middle of a medium. A small/long size is available though which according to xterra fits from 135 to 165 lbs and is perfect for my height. Anyone have any experience with the small/long? Will it fit?

I don't want to just buy a suit because of the low price but have poor uncomfortable fit.

Wow. I would really like to get one of these.

What suggestions do you have? What brand do you like best? Sleeved or sleevless?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Does anyone have an Xterra suit? When I look at the sizing Kim provided it says I should get a medium/large, I never wear a medium anthing. I'm always large.

Thanks Core!

I just bought a medium 2003 Ironman instinct. Does anyone have any experience with Ironman wetsuits? Better yet...does anyone have any NEGATIVE experiences with Ironman wetsuits?

I would love to bye the Vtex full suit, however i'm not sure if the small would fit me. The small size doesn't show up on Xterra's sizing chart based on the link posted. Anyone have an idea if a 5'6" 153 lbs male would fir into a small Vtex full suit.

Thanks.

Chris

Just ordered my first tri suit ever, I ordered a Vtec Full suit. Not reall comfortable ordering off the internet without trying it on but couldn't pass it up. I got the long sleeves as opposed to the longjohn. What do u guys thing or use, not that it matters since I already ordered it.

I just emailed the website because I was unsure of size, they said if it doesn't fit, you can return it for a full refund

Thanks Chris, looks like i'm going to order my first wetsuit.

Living in CO, I'd suggest the full suit with sleeves.  The shoulders are made now such that you have great mobility.  I have an Xterra and I love it.  It peels off easily.  If you have questions about your size, you can call Xterra and they'll help you (that is what I did).  They recommend using your weight as a guideline for sizing.
