Received as a gift. I use it for snorkeling, not certified yet.

We bought this for our daughter's first dive. She did a great job and the gear did a great job making her feel comfortable.
Comments about Akona Akona 3MM Neoprene Womens One-Piece Jumpsuit:
I love the ease of putting on this suit especially when the boat is rocking in the waves! The sizing is a little on the larger side and does not account for the stretchiness of the fabric. Definately order a size smaller to counteract the stretch factor.

Can't judge length by me I'm a 6 ft size 6 woman - it's hard to fit my long legs and narrow waist.
Comments about Akona Akona 3MM Neoprene Womens One-Piece Jumpsuit:
I bought this for my girlfriend, and it's a great wet suit at a really great price. Akona makes good stuff. It seals the water out at the ankles and wrists as well as neck very satisfactorily. We have used these suits in salt water diving in the Dominican as well as fresh water dives and snorkeling and it has kept both of us reasonably warm and dry. The suit is a little bit of a chore to get into if you're not used to it and if you're not careful with checking the sizing guide.
Comments about Akona Akona 3MM Neoprene Womens One-Piece Jumpsuit:
I am a tall woman and find it very difficult to find clothing which fits well. I was very sceptical about finding a suit which would fit well and be affordable. This suit did just that. I'm 5'11" and weigh 170lbs. I bought a size 13/14 and it fits well. I had no trouble getting the suit on/off by myself. It fit fine through the hips and chest. The arms and legs were plenty long.
The first time I wore the suit, it felt very tight around the neck. I was concerned that it would be uncomfortable during the dive. Once I was in the water, everything was much better. There was never any discomfort after that.
The suit was warm. I dove in Hawaii in 74 degree water and was never cold. I tend to get cold very easily so I was very pleased to find this suit kept me warm.
During the surface intervals in Hawaii, I pealed only the top half down. Once I let the water out of the ankles, I was very comfortable. I was never too warm or too cold, in the water or out.
