got a mate with an ion and he doen't rate it. Mioght even try an NPX Assassin.
Melbourne's kite stores suck! You have to buy online or go interstate to get what you want

Other option to consider is a dry for winter. Pretty much the same price as a wetty, just as flexible and warmer when you get out. Got one two years back and not sure I could ever go back to a wetty in winter.

Picked up a mystic drysuit 2 years for the same price as a wetty (Landed cost under $500) because UK finishes their winter as ours starts so you get the end of season specials and the GST comes off so that covers your cost of shipping. No GST this end because its under the $1000 cap. This is the place I got mine from and came with a free undersuit.

yeah read some posts on SB about Drysuits. I just think they'd be too bulky. I'm trying a lot more tricks these days and spend quite a bit more time in the water and not sure if a drysuit would be up for it.

I could order some gear in but i'm not sure of sizes. Want a new wettie and mystic harness and thinking of dropping from a small to an xs as i've always had the straps cranked to the max... went to Katani, kite republic, SHQ and RPS on sat and only came across one store that had the new warrior in and they only had it in med and large.

kite republic has the ION and mystic wetsuits in stock in their shop, ion wetties rock aswell so well made and warm, the 5/4 i have is soo warm but feels like a 3/2

I asked about mystic wetsuits at kite republic and the lady said they had none

drysuits is not that bad for tricks. works fine for basic unhook like raley, etc
dunno about hp though
