Say you're stuck with a dilemma. Your wetsuit is falling to pieces - the zip is held in place by a sowed on button, the sleeves are frayed and every time you put it on, you worry about the chance it falls apart. Yet it fits you comfortably and a rashie underneath keeps the cold away unless you go for longer sesh (in that case you are stuffed with your toes going numb and blokes have a laugh at your shivering that resembles an over grown bobble head sitting on the dashboard ).

BUT

A wetsuit is a wetsuit and it doesn't take the place of a new board to the quiver. The reasoning being, there's always space for another board; be it a single fin, retro, longboard, alaia, basically a new board to take out! Even better, you can still take the board out when summer approaches whereas the wetsuit would be stored away til winter.

So whats your reasoning? The board or the wetsuit? Which would you choose?
