Need to find wetsuit for short plump 12yr old

[GrimmaTheNome]

I need to find a full-length wetsuit for my 12 yr old DD, for windsurfing on a Pennine reservoir.

She tried on last years, which is an age 10 Tribord - she's only just over 140 cm so we were hoping it would still fit but she only just got it on with much pulling and it was really uncomfortable. She's overweight - not obese but definitely plump.

There seem to be lots of different brands available online but its impossible to tell what the fit will be like, so I was wondering if anyone had any experience. Ideally I'd rather take her somewhere she could try on a range but I don't know of any shops hereabouts (Preston) - we went to Decathlon in Stockport for the previous one but they only seemed to stock Tribord.

Any suggestions much appreciated!

I suppose anyone who might know is outside on a pleasant Saturday....

I've recently bought one for myself from an ebay seller who also has retail premises in Cornwall and their own web site.

They were ever so helpful to me as a novice wetsuit purchaser and I'm sure would be able to advise if you gave them a ring..

The ebay name is bluerushshop and their website is bluerushshop.co.uk/index.html

Try here. There are some different height/size combinations

Oh thanks!

I actually ordered an O'Neill wetsuit online this morning after talking to a chap on a customer helpline who was actually helpful and seemed to know how the brands they stocked were cut- but if it doesn't fit I'll return it, the Osprey range in that link looks brilliant for sizing (either a large short or, slightly oddly, a medium tall should do it. I think she'd like to be a medium tall ). Come to that, I'll bookmark it in case I decide I need a full length wetsuit (may be doing some coldwater dingying) and I'm short too.
