Sorry for the response time lag. I haven't been checking this thread. Make sure you PM me if you are interested so I see it.
The Helix is SOLD. Shipped today for $265 for what it's worth
(good deal to the buyer in my opinion
). I wasn't out looking for top dollar, just figured I'd unload it for a good price to someone who needed a suit and hoping karma comes back when I buy wheels...
My height is 5' 9" and hovering a little under 190 as of right now. I was a little over 220 in January when I started training
(first year doing Tris
). So, as you can imagine, my body shape has been changing a little the past few months.
The Helix large fit me but was probably a little too big, except in the shoulder and arms where it probably fit close enough.
The 2XU fits everywhere but my shoulders and arms, where nothing fits me because I'm freaking huge
(that was a joke
).
I've lost a couple inches in the shoulders and arms and a few in the waist over the past few months, but in general, I'm just going with Desoto because it's like buying suit separates and I can make it work for me. I'm going sleeveless at the moment because I like the arm/shoulder freedom it gives me, which is just personal preference I guess.
As far as the 2XU suit goes, I'll get some pics of it and the zipper. I guess I could probably just fix the zipper, but I just haven't bothered with it at all to be honest. I'll take a closer look tonight.
I guess $200 +shipping is what I'd sell it for.
damn, wrote a book....sorry, it happens when you type fast and are streaming consciousness as you type...
