I was looking at wetsuits today. Trying on different types and listening to the sales pitches.
Now I have been told that my one piece semi dri 3/2 is not good enough. I also have been told that a 3 farmer john would be plenty good enough because it gave me 6 on the core. Then I was also told that layering did not realy work because you would not heat up the water in the outer layer so you would just keep loosing heat.
I also tried a 7mm henderson farmer john that fit, but I am concerned that it would be overkill and I would be dieing of the heat.
So are any of the above sales pitches true?
Is it worth it to purchase a "new" 2 year old suit?
ARGH I hate sorting the bs from the truth.
tnx for the opinions.
