HOW TO MAKE SURE YOUR WETSUIT FITS RIGHT

It should feel like a second skin, but not so tight that it restricts any movement or circulation.
Should fit like compression shorts
The most important part is to ensure it fits your torso just right.
Do not want any excess fabric bunching or hanging from any portion of the body.
Make sure the neck piece is snug but not restricting the ability to breathe properly.
