Just bought a HUUB aerious wetsuit.  First tried it on dry....I thought I was literally going to break my ribs the thing was so tight.  Tried it at the pool and wow, letting a little water in the thing feels like a second skin.  Was taking around 10 sec/100 yards off my times.  I was swimming :48-:50 75's like it was nothing.  Have 2 races this weekend and will report back on the results.  So far this thing beats the crap out of my Xterra sleeveless that I've had for the last 6 years.

I don't have one but I met axteraa over at Alcatraz last year.  He was using one and seemed pretty happy with it.  He's a FOP swimmer so I think he's pretty picky.

Of course wetsuit choice should depend on your swimming form and body type but I think Huub is well regarded.

Day 1 went well. 13th overall swim.  No constriction in the shoulders or chest.  Last minute ditched the watch because i was concerned about getting the sleeves off.  Anyone have a solution?

I'm doing my first tri Saturday. It starts at 7 AM and the forecast is calling for a high of 82 (air temp). Do I need to rush out and get a wetsuit?
