Hi All, I am trying to decide between 2 full wetsuits from Roka:
MEN'S MAVERICK COMP II WETSUIT
MEN'S MAVERICK MX WETSUIT (MAXIMUM BUOYANCY)
The MX is about $100 more on clearance, and wondering if "Maximum Buoyancy" is a real difference or marketing fluff. I am looking at doing a couple tougher, longer, open water swims.

Well...if it makes any difference the last wetsuit I got was the higher buoyancy option in the brand I purchased. My swimming navigation is so bad that I am not sure if it makes me any faster than my first wet suit, but when I struggle keeping my feet high in the water in the pool so the buoyancy is something I thought would help me a lot.
