Thanks!

I looked at drysuits, and just about died when I saw the prices for DUI ones. Especially since their sizing chart says I'm a "medium large tall" and that size is only available in the "Select" trim level, not "Stock", and thus tack on a few hundred more bucks. Argh! Tall, skinny and curvy is a REALLY sucky body shape for athletic stuff, even if the fashion world is obsessed with it.

Any other brand I should look at?

I'm looking at O'Neill wetsuits for now...I have pretty damned good natural temperature tolerance, so I suspect I'll be fine for at least short to medium dives in 5mm neoprene. Given that I swim in the Pacific in a two-piece.
