    I am looking to purchase a wetsuit without paying crazy money, probably up to €200. Can anyone recommend any good makes and places to buy? Is blueseventy a good make as this seems like good value?

    Hey thats the wetsuit I've used for my 2 tri seasons so far. No complaints, its very bouyant and if you haven't got a great swim position, ie legs too low, it will float your legs higher for you so all good. My OW times have all been more or less faster than my pool times in it. My only crticism and the reaosn I'm selling mine is becasue I quick stocky around the shoulders and find I need more flexibbility for longer sessions or warmer conditions. So as my A goal is an IM in warm conditions, I'm changing
