Ok, now that my newbie question about feathering has been
answered, I want to know about wet suits. What should I look for
in a wetsiut? I am going to North Carolina the beginning of
October and I want to try kayak surfing. I used to use a farmer
Jon when I board surfed in CA. Is a farmer John what Kayakers
use? I am looking for the cheapest option because as a graduate
student not only am I cheap, I'm also broke.

One with a front zipper that also works from the bottom up!! (NRS makes
them)

Discussion of this feature frequently comes up during "rest stops."
