    Hi,
    Does anyone know if the surf schools sell second-hand wetsuits?
    I am looking for a decent suit for swimming and surfing but don’t really have the budget at the moment. Rather than buy a cheap but thin one which I will freeze in and then not use I was hoping to get a better one that someone may be upgrading from!
    I have googled a bit but no luck and was just checking before I hit the phones and call the guys in Lahinch!
    Thanks

    You should probably look under Sports/Scuba diving etc.

    Hi, yep, checked those already..thanks though....I didn't see anything but I will double check if you think you did...

    It is more the surfing area really as the scuba suits are kinda different and more expensive - wouldn't say no mind you!

    aha, I see the links you mean Biko, thanks.

    Yeah, I got my last one from a uk site and it was great but I gave it to my sis when she went abroad. I guess I was just kinda thinking someone local may have one or know of a local group that sell them on.
    It is really me being lazy and a skint flint!

    I will check out all the links for the surf clubs though, thanks for those - may get one from the rental guys at the beach. I guess I should just post there too:)

    Seensensee, I would be looking for a ladies medium (possibly small). It is usually a case of a large small or a small medium if that makes sense! Oh also, probably an autumn/winter suit- so a 4 or 5 or 4/3 5/3 something like that.....
