    RIGHT-So im starting to feel the coldness approaching.The water was freezing over the weekend at Strand beach and its time i seriously need a wetty.Im in a shitty situition though.Only R400 bucks strong for a suit.I saw a suit at a mall for R380(REEF-NO SLEEVES OR PIPES FOR YOUR LEGS).I have 3 options.1-buy that suit and hope its warm enough.2-wait a month until i have enough for a full suit(about R900-also REEF).3-demand a raise or threaten to quit my job.Dudes i seriously need help with this.Is that suit good enough or should i wait.I cant stay out of the water for a month...

    Wat i rate u do is not buy the short wetsuit as the water that side does get quite cold during the winter and if you have a long suit u are prepared for strand and for the cold waters of long beach or atlantic side. but ask around-there are lots of dudes out there that have two suits or at least a suit to sell so just put a post on that explains the cash u have etc. and i am sure you will beable to get a long 2nd hand suit for R300-R400.

    Hpe u get sorted,

    Hey,

    Well I would'nt buy the suit if I were you, Caves,prigle,kokarot,spot x,betties etc do get cold!rather don't surf an month than buying a suit now and then get cold every time you surf>?

    Science wetsuits are insane,Also the Reef tri-flex. Good price for a new Reef.

    Suport them cause Len from Science/Reef suport us.

    cash converters / crusaders should have plenty of suits. just give it a wash with colgate apple shampoo and conditioner ( for that fresh fruityness) and youre sorted
