When I first started open water swimming I was hiring a wetsuit each time and was lucky enough to try the Yonda Spectre. I fell in love with it and knew I had to have a Yonda wetsuit of my own! I researched other brands so I had a full picture of what was available and was on the verge of purchasing another leading brand's wetsuit; but after trying it out, found it wasn't as light or flexible or as good a fit. So I've just bought the YONDA Spirit and love it :) It's so soft, flexible and buoyant that when I'm swimming it feels like I'm not wearing a wetsuit even though I am! I found it easy to get on and off and love the design too. I've got a pink hat to match and now I'm all set to enjoy open water swimming for many seasons to come :) Thank you YONDA!
