Wetsuit recommendations for the Winter

[MrsFerguson]

Hi everyone,

Really enjoying the mental health benefits of sea swimming and surfing at the moment and would like to continue into the colder months.

Can anyone recommend a thickness and possibly a brand of wetsuit that suits a curvy 10? I have big thighs and today almost fainted pulling my ancient size 12 Summer wetsuit up my legs. I think it was tight because I hadn't worn it for over a year.

I have booties sorted.

Thanks

Bit late to reply but I have always found Rip Curl and C Skins wetsuits to be good quality for the price. I prefer a back zip though...had a chest zip and has to get strangers to help me get out of it in the winter when my hands were cold!

Oh and thickness for winter 4/3mm. 5mm are good for depths of winter but so thick and difficult to move in!
