Product review O'neill Hyper Freak wetsuit jacket(top)

I purchased this wetsuit to for spring and fall use. Well it's the fall water temps of about 70 degrees + or - a few, with air temps of 80+ down to the upper 60s. This thing rocks. It's 1.5 millimeters thick long sleeve. Takes the chill out of the air and makes morning fall and spring sessions enjoyable. Like all wetsuits fit is key! The snugness of a good fit keeps it from having a cold flush feeling when you hit the water. The tops run anywhere from $50 - $100. The tested version retails for about $90. This model has a stash pocket, quick draw elastic band at the bottom and a board short loop to keep it from riding up.

If you surf warm water with a little chill in the air, I recommend this top for a 3+ days a week surfer. If your just a weekend warrior maybe pick up the low end model.
