    A bit on the small size. And where's the key pocket?

    Either I've put on weight (likely) or the Defender has a smaller cut than the old Superfreak and Hyperfreak, which seem to fit me better. O'neill don't make this in a Short-Medium (SM) size, but for me, that would be great. Also, why have they dropped the key pocket on the leg, when both the Superfreak and Hyperfreak have one? The little details can make the difference between a sale, or not. But not in my case, as I'll always be a loyal O'Neill guy.

    They make wetsuits ….

    Loving my new Defender wetsuit.

    You can tell O’Neil have been making wetsuits for a long time.

    The fit is perfect, the seams are smooth & comfortable. Past experience has taught me you get what you pay for &!while there may be cheaper options from guys who make lots of other stuff, O’Neil has always made wetsuits.

    Hi Gary,

    Thanks for your review, the Defender is our mid market 2mm spring/summer suit. It has been redesigned as a quality mid level wetsuit. For tech features such as ZEN zip you can take a look at our premium Hyper Range.

    Thanks again for your review.
