I got a 7/6 velocity and 2/2 plazma shorty. I use the shorty under the full for winter and it goes together well and is very comfortable. Go Bare! lol

Well, looks like you're convinced. I have 62 dives on my 5/4 and fairly pleased with it. I did get a pocket glued on for my last trip. Mine fits pretty snug which is good but I usually need help with the zipper. It does matter a great deal whether you get the zipper up with the inner flap flat otherwise you'll have a bit more water exchange. I got this one for multiple dives in 81-84 degree tropical water.
Sorry I did not see this thread sooner. I have both the 5/4 Velocity, and a 3/2 Velocity. I like them both and they have both held up very well.

I have the 3/2 and love it. I have only made 15 dives with it, but could tell right away that it was way better than the bottom dollar suit that I had before.

How does the stretch in these compare to that of Henderson's Hyperstretch?
Good suits for shallow diving
Don't take them deeper than 70m+, when you come back up the suit is cactus. The pressure crushes the Neoprene and they end up about 1mm and all baggy and out of shape. It seems the neoprene used in the suits is not crushed very well when made, they seem more spongy than other suits.

I'm assuming you meant meters, correct? If so, I have no plans on going quite that deep in this suit. I apprecaite the warning though!
