I'm deciding between the Zoot Fusion Sleeveless and QR Hydrojohn. I've tried the Zoot on and it feels tight and restricting in the torso (the sizing says it should fit). I haven't tried the QR in but I'm told that QR wetsuits are a little broader and may be more comfortable.

I'd like to make a purchase in a week or so.

All comments/opinions (better options) are greatly appreciated!

Mike.

I am considering the Vineman full next year in California. Anyone willing to provide some feedback about the race?(Places to stay, course, support etc) Thanks!

Sorry Likemike....wrong spot to post Vineman question.
However, I do have the QR Hydrojohn. Not restrictive in the torso for me and an all around good fit. I also needed a suit that was broader in the shoulders. My first attempt was an Orca suit, obviously no success. Very limited range of movement, much like the Zoot. Hope that helps.

2XU and Orca are supposedly narrower in the upper body, QR and Blue Seventy are broader.

Guernville. If you can stay a week, rent a house. Course is beautiful. You can see the map on the sight.
