Custom Wetsuit

Hi folks !

My girlfriend is getting certified and we are having a problem finding a 7 mm that will fit. We found a Pinnacle 3mm shorty that fits just fine (Size - small) but finding a 7 mm is difficult.

She is very petite but busty woman; about 5' 2" with a bust size of 34C. (Is that busty for 5'2"...I dunno... ) Any 7mm that fits vertically is very challenging horizontally. Any ideas on a QUALITY custom wetsuit for her?

Thanks,
Nevis

Some of the new Henderson hyperstretch suits can accommodate a variety of body sizes. I'd go that direction to save some bucks vs. a custom suit. Another alternative is (if she really likes this sport and gets into it and dives colder water) to consider a drysuit. Drysuits have room and again, can accommodate a variety of sizes. Also, in my experience women tend to get colder during longer dives.

However, my first choice is hyperstretch. I ordered a custom cave suit and gained 6 lbs. The darn thing cost me 500.00 and it lives on a hanger because I can't lose the newly acquired belly fat!
