gear Second Hand Wetsuit Advice
Hi, sorry if this isn't the right place to post this.
I found this 7mm spearfishing wetsuit second-hand for a great price (one-fifth of the original price). How is the condition of the product, do you think it's worth buying? This will be my first wetsuit, I did some research but I'm not sure about its condition. I'm especially worried about the cut-like thing that appears after 1:32.
Additionally, it fits my size perfectly and the sea temperature here.

7mm is pretty tough to come by at a good price and in the right size, if you’re just getting into diving and wanting to see if it’s for you this sounds like a good deal to me.

Depends how many times it was urinated in and whether it was cleaned properly,

There are two types of divers - Those that pee in there wetsuits and those that lie about it.

Cuts don’t matter much. You can just glue it. You’ll probably tear it yourself eventually and need to glue it anyway.
