    Ahoy

    Any comments on the above wetsuit? I've been offered one for R900 which seems a steal but I've been told this suit is rather KAK.

    I'd like to buy Reef because it's Reef, but may hold out for an Ignition.

    A Tri-Flex is a good suit...it will do the job just fine. Don't forget tho that it is one of Reef's lower-end-of-the-market- products cartered for a tight budget. Still a good suit, i have used them since i started to boogie.

    I upgraded to an Ignition a while back...

    The Ignition is warmer and has a lot more flex, but it costs double the amount because they use top-end materials to make the suit.

    My opinion...

    If you're a student on a tight budget and you suffer from frost bite after each surf as a result of your old suit being full of holes, then go for the Tri Flex. If you are only buying a suit because you have a little money lying around, then...wash some more cars, mow more lawns and save for the Ignition...or better yet...

    The new Reef Air Fusion.

    the tri-flex is definatly one of the best ,if not the best, fitting reef suits ive had. Alot of my friends back this up.The arm length and wrist seal is super nice!

    Definatly the best suit more the money..HANDS DOWN!

    Kind of a weird suit, in that the knee pads pull outwards (before anyone says I have funny knees, this doesn't just happen to me!). Also because I'm tall, when I first got my latest one, it pissed in by the zipper (because of tautness along the backbone) and pulled my crotch up painfully - I was bummed, but after a while it has formed to my body a bit and is way cool. The knees are still weird though!

    Cheaper suit that keeps you in the water. Well worth it if you can't afford more expensive suits!
