I'm looking for a wetsuit and considering these two options:

NRS 3.0 Ultra John Wetsuit
http://www.nrs.com/product/22201/nrs-30-ultra-john-wetsuit

Neo Sport, Men’s 3mm XSPAN John
http://neosportusa.com/paddle/product/mens-3mm-xspan-john/

Does anyone have experience or feedback on these two?

Thanks,
John

Don't have experience with the suits you mentioned, but the Rapid John by stohlquist is one of the most comfortable suits I've seen. The neo is 4 way stretch which makes it way less restricting than any wetsuits that I've used. Depending on your size I may have a 2012 closeout suit that would fit you. $149 retail and I think we had a deal last season for $100 for NCKA.

Good question.  I'm not sure I'm seeing the extra padding or felt lining on the Neo.  I have the NRS- it has these things and it's just fine as is/was my old worn out one.
