Nathan you are just plain wrong there. Get some experience before you give advice.

Hell, there's been enough fights on this forum between open vs closed cell neoprene, let alone throwing surfing steamers into the mix..... (also... for all you haters out there, im currently looking into getting myself a two piece open cell... ya jerks).

For a start surf wetties have no hood so your cold head will end your dive real early, there's many more reasons but I can't be stuffed.

No ones here trying to sell gear, it's just experienced advice given from blokes who've made all the mistakes years before you were probably even born.

Going slightly off topic here :)

Diving in a surfing wetsuit is a good way to ruin it. You go from having a nice surfing suit you use for surfing and diving to not having a suit at all.

Its all been covered here before. Last topic I can think of is here: http://southernfreedivers.org.au/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3909&hilit=wetsuit&start=0. There are undoubtedly others.
