Anyone know of any good deals/ close outs on wetsuits? Maybe a 5/4?
Thanks.

Location?
I buy at wet suit center or king of watersports. They should have some nice discounts now or in near future. Both based in UK.

For what it's worth,
I say support your local shop. In most cases, they can be very competitive and for sure they can use the business. The Internet has made the world pretty small but it's your local guy who is alwYs your go to guy, when yhave a sudden need.

I got a 5/4 Hyperflex on ebay for $150 shipped that I've used loads in 2 seasons and still strong. The size chart was bang on. Hard to beat that price and quality is great.

I also got my Mystic wetsuit on ebay.
But it's risky, my buddy also got a suit on ebay and it didn't fit exactly.
It is very important that a wetsuit will fit exactly so no water will come in it.

Nope, no good deals on wetsuits anywhere. You're screwed.
