Need a wet suit

I mostly fish but would like to dive on occasion. Especially for bugs.
I am a certified diver (advanced and eco diver certs) but like to free-dive.
There is a shop in Orange with suits for $89 (7 mm) which is a good price but is it any good?
I would like something to compare it with without busting the bank. I am willing to buy online.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Nostrovia,
Dave

That sounds too cheap, I guess if you don't plan to use it to much why pay a few hundred for a good one. Mine was about 350 for a 7 mil. Also, if you plan to freedive only then you want a 3-5 mil.

Re: Need a wet suit

Yeah you can probably find a 7mm for under $100, but it depends how warm you want to be. Not all 7mm wetsuits are created equal.

Re: Need a wet suit

I've got a 7 mil winter surf full suit by O'Niell only used 1 time and in excellent shape. Had some serious injuries after I bought it and it's been taking up space since then. I forget the size but I 'm 6 ' and was a buck fiddy at the time ( I got fat ) it's to short for my boy and I could use the closet space

Re: Need a wet suit

I found a 4/3 mil surf suit at a surf shop in HB on sale $109. I might go back and get it.
Although the link Mako6924 sent has some awesome deals!
