Guys, can you recommend one, or a few brands to look at.  Im not looking to get the top of the line, nor the bottom....Somewhere in the middle which will be good for years to come..

Thanks for the advice!!

Neosport and Promotion have great suits at very reasonable prices, i use them both and like them both very much.

Do not be fooled by Neosports extremely cheap price, they are a very good suit and are a bargain for the money you spend on it ($99-$150)  I got my p\Promotion used once for $150 here on BT in the classifieds.

good luck!!!

I have a Neosport full suit; its very comfortable and so far its held up fine to its limited use.  Of course I'm a noob and probably couldn't tell the difference between a $150 wet suit and a $1000 one.

I have Quintana Roo. I live in Florida, so I only need it for a short amount of time in the winter. Check out a BT sponsor, Tri Sports .com here http://www.kqzyfj.com/p4122wktqks7BDD88C9798DEDCBD and look around. Don't forget to use your discount code from BT (BT-W)

I asked a similar question recently.  Rudedog gave the same basic answer, and I went with the Neosport.  Did my first OWS practice with it last Wednesday.  I couldn't be happier.  All in, less than a hundred bucks off ebay.

Rudedog, thanks.

I have a DeSoto T1 Black Peral with a separate top and bottom. I really like being able to get different sizes for top and bottom to get a good fit. Great service if you have a problem. I got a tear in the suit this year and they fixed it for free.
