ive done alot of research and talked to alot of different ppl and they all say that the ricurl E-bomb or F-bomb are the best
for you id say go with the F-bomb just because its supposed to be a little but warmer

I use an
Oneill Evolution 5/4/3.
I use it in tempratures of high 40's and low 50's with fleece long under wear underneith. It's awsome. The smooth skin really works well to block the wind. I just wish they made it in an extra large small.

my choice would be the neilpryde npx 5000 or, if warmer is needed, the apex 5000.
but you shoud try a few wetsuits in a good shop and see what fits you best.

You can't really go wrong with any of the top end A brands these days. You need to try a few on to see which one fits your body best.
I'm loving my Ripcurl E-Bomb.
Have fun sweating it out in the shops getting in and out of a few of them.. probably the least fun you can have in a surf shop!
