i would recommend driving down to the billabong factory outlet on the gold coast. i buy last seasons wetties from there for half the price.
it's located on nerang southport road.

if you're lucky you can also pick up a cheap dakine harness. i got mine for $35

Hey Kitegal,
Have you bought one yet?
Definitely go Ashmore if not. Big label outlets with the crap wettie prices. A good wettie does the job well and keeps doing it for years ahead. I have a rip curl that is awesome but it's a little thin for down south road trips so I ended up at Ashmore and was in wetsuit heaven. Like WillyO said this is the place. Go a 3/2 with a back zip and a bat wing. (so much easier to get in and out of than these new diagonal chest zips). they have awesome range of xcel suits there also from 2009/10/11 which are brand new. I picked up one of these for under 200. it's got fire wool inside from the elbows to the knees! Toasty! I can't wait for it to get cold so I can use it!Good luck. let us know how you went and what you came up with.

Picked up a wetsuit at dfo. It's a Peak 3/2mm. Has back zip and fire wool on chest. Retail was $250+, got it for $140. Not too bad..works well.
Thx again for all the suggestions :)
