Sounds like your son is still 35 pounds short of the low end range on the Sealion. You could look into the Dive Rite TransPac II LTD. It is more expensive than the Sealion, but Dive Rite claims they can fit anyone plus for youth they offer free size upgrades until age 16. This might be a better way to go in the long run, esp if you expect him to grow quite a bit in the next couple of years.

As for wet suits I just keep buying my son new Henderson's whenever he outgrows one. Used wet suits in good condition are pretty easy to unload for 1/2 price on Craigs List.
