My husband is my tri coach. I am 5'1" 132 lbs. chest 36"D waist 27" hips 38" (hourglass-definately not skinny). I have tried the long john style (QR) a long sleeve Orca and long sleeve BlueSeventy -Sprint. Here is my problem. I like the long john feel (less restraint on shoulders) however,my chest size....it allows more water to come into the wetsuit than I would like.
My Orca.... Just way too small. VERY restricting in the shoulders. My blueseventy..... Fits well. Ok fit in shoulders,but I feel like it may be too tight in the chest. I feel like I cant friggin' breathe !!!! I've swam in it in fresh water a few times with out feeling this way. A few days ago I swam in it at Panama City and thought I was having an asthma attack. My husband thinks I should just get a top to go with my lava pants. Before I spend ANY more money I'm hoping that you ladies can help me figure this one out! Any advice would ge greatly appreciated!
