I'm happy with a Neilpryde 5/3 wetsuit. Use it from 4-... degr. C. Most important is that the arms are wide enough. Had some problems before in my old suit with bad blood circulation.

Heard a lot about the Da Kine Fusion (seat h.). Am using an old windsurfseat from Da Kine and it's really strong. I'll probably buy a Fusion and will pass the windsurfseat to my girlfriend who's starting kiting.

BTW price is the most important. I got my 5/3 suit on a price of 180 euro. That's a fair price! The fusion would cost round about 119 euro. That's not so cheap...

Where to buy? In any surf shop I think.
Internet is an option, but you should try it on, so it's a bit more difficult! Unless you can try a harness/suit from a friend first.

Best prices? No idea... Would like to know!
If you find the seat cheaper, send me a mail on willempuk@yahoo.co.uk

(I'm not from the UK as my address might suggest!)

I use a Prolimit 5mm Proseries.
It is very soft, stretchable and is very easy to use, since it only has a small zipper in front, which is great when getting in and out alone.
It is not displayed on their internet yet.

send a mail to: windysite@terra.es
Andoni will send stuff anywhere you like. He's a realy nice guy (though I only know him from E-mails)

They are working on their site http://www.windysite.com so, you have to do it by E-mail.

Good luck!
