Xcel Wetsuit Infiniti X-Zip 2 5/4/3mm
December 16, 2010, 05:32:26 pm
Selling one of these, http://www.boardshop.co.uk/product/mb543z10-bk.asp
Its just too restrictive for me, going to go for a less warm more flexible wetty.
Worn it for about a dozen days.
Its in very good condition.
Retails for £270.

Willing to listen to offers.

Ah, we may have a problem.....


(shortarse) :)

Would have never guessed you would take a medium btw, maybe that's why it's too restrictive!

Really? I am only 5ft 10. Fairly skinny too. I have never been a large in anything in my life. (Maybe underpants!)  :lol:

I'm 6 ft 2 and I have an XCEL LT which is an excellent fit on me - just the right length and no bagging.

Looks like you are borderline, in which case it's generally advised to go up

Medium or M Tall.

I agree with chris that if your finding it restrictive it may be too tight. I think these are the best suits for the NE in winter (with a hood) never needed to go upto the 6mm version.
Have had / got more flexible suits but not warm enough.

There are only two types of people in this world, people who piss in their wetsuits, and liars.

I piss in my wetsuit all the time and it doesn't smell.

I haven't wanked in it though, not for want of trying.

So does anyone want to buy Adam's wetsuit or not? :)

Winner...
Back  :off:
I am  :o and amazed that anyone who surfs for any concerted period of time in cold water (esp. the North East) does not have an uncontrolable urge to take piss at some point during the surf..  What do you do? Deliberately dehydrate yourself?  Just fight the urge?  Get out take off your suit, have a piss, get back in?  End your classic session coz you need a wee?

:lol: :agree:
Personally speaking, I can't think of a better on board wetsuit heating system, in fact I'll deliberately drink plenty and save some up to make a winter surf that little bit warmer...  Those of you that haven't, you don't know what your missing or you are just telling porkies.  Urine is sterile (unless you've got an infection) and if you rinse your wetsuit properly smell is not an issue.  Still wouldn't buy one that someone else has pissed in ... mind

Just one of them things isn't it.  I've never done it, during the summer I have got out and took a leak somewhere quiet to the disbelief to some of the line up locals.  Lack of hydration, good skills at holding it in - It's one of those things I prob only do as a last resort, if the waves were perfect, and i was bursting 5 mins in.
P.S. the waters not that cold up here anyways

Look a low flying LOLcopter.

You only have to do it for the first time once. After that it's easy.
