Original Review: I purchased this suit because I can't stand cold water. SO...... I gave it a try on a cold morning and it is by far the warmest suit I have ever owned. The zipperless entry is easy to get in and out of and virtually no water leakage (so far). Flexibility is outstanding and the smooth panels stop the wind. Suit is on the high end of the dollar scale.

Updated Review (5/1/2020): Wore it for two month consistently, always washed out with fresh water and never sun dried. It developed a tear along the seem on the left lat panel. Additionally, the glue on the outside seams has cracked and peeled off in various places. The suit is good but not quite as well built as a 4:3 Flash Bomb. The glued seams on the 4:3 Flash Bomb are about 3 times as thick as the Heat Seeker.

****Ripcurl Repair is closed due to Covid-19. By the time I get it repaired, it will be 2mm season.
