Some in Florida use heavier wetsuits and even drysuits in the cooler months of the year in the upper part of the state. Still, in South Florida we don't approach the demands you undergo in the UK in the colder months. I would see what folks have good luck with locally. For my part I have always had good performance with Neil Pryde now NP wetsuits.

I live in the UK and get in the water year round. I'm semi-decided on this suit:http://www.boylos.co.uk/products/vie...ns-mutant-54mm

I've had O'neill before and with this one the hood can go on or off, which I like.

A friend said though that for kiting I would be better with a suit that is fully single lined. He suggested Spartan suits because of their single lined design he says they will be much better in the wind. they're here: http://www.spartanwetsuits.com/

I was just wondering if anyone had any experience with Spartan suits or similar alternatives?

Advice and experience will be much appreciated.
