Maybe you should take a ride into the city and visit LP, then you can try them on. I would call them ahead and let them know what suits you wish to try on, to make sure they have them at the store, if not I'm sure they'll get them from their warehouse for you. Al save on S & H.

shop around on the internet the prices for the same thing will be different and there is almost always free shipping....go to pan aqua and LP and try on what you want...if you think you have found the one that feels the best , shop it on the internet. and dont be afarid to ask "is that your best price?" ya never know you might get some money knocked off...for whatever reason, its the end of that series, they are slow whatever...keep reading all these posts there are posts about wetsuits all over dny...LOL

just keep asking the boys they are more than happy to fit you in one....

Yeah, I got mine @ LP. Tried several different suits over 2 days, and found one that fits quite well (except for the arms).

Clary - What Mundo said. from what I have heard, the Bare suit will fit better and be warmer. I however am a fan of the Pinnacle suits. They have a rolled collar so you get kind of a drysuit seal on the neck. Like previously posted call LP and make sure they have the size and models in store for you to try on. Talk to Ben (he is an instructor), he has not steered me wrong yet.

Yes, my Pinnacle 7mm Elastiprene kept me warm until Nov. 1. Don't think it will fare so well in April though.

my cruiser 7 kept me warm down to 47 degrees in minnewaska. the only prob was ice cream headache a.k.a brain freeze. even with a 7mm hood! but my body was toasty.
