Frown  I'm so frustrated.  My wetsuit arrived today and in my geeky excitement I decided to put it on.  In the process I managed to slice the leg with my fingernail.  Grrrrrrr......

I orderd a some repair glue for it but I'm still frustrated.

Yep. No fingernails!!!  I always have to cut mine short to deal with the wet suit.

Most scuba shops have wetsuit repair kits. You can check there.

I also know that Tribe can do some repairs or has a place that can.

Sorry to hear about that. I know how badly it sucks to hurt a new toy.

Thank for the support.  The most frustrating part is I have experience with wetsuits because I scuba dive.  I generally keep my nails cut very short because I'm a mom.  I just let my excitement get away from me.  It is a small slice, so I'm sure I can fix it without too much trouble.

Got 2 big gashes in mine the first time I wore it. Bought some repar goo at Triple sports and she's good to go.

I have some slices in my old wetsuit. They never tore any further in many years of (ab)use. I wouldn't worry about patching the slice. It's like with a new car: once you got the first dent in it you're fine.
