Cool Beans,
I'll have to check out one the dog days events if possible.
Yes, trying out the suits before you buy is a smart idea.
FYI, you can check this thread too:

You can also check for this topic on DIR Explorer forum and the decostop. Lots of info there, mainly about "DIR suits" but very informative.
For what it's worth, here are the specs of the suit I just ordered. Note: that suit fits my needs and yours may be different. You can PM me if you want to know about the reasons for these choices.
