In Response To: Tall Farmer John Wetsuits? (G. Snapp)

Do you have 'Play It Again Sports' in your area -- a store that sells used sporting goods? They often have wetsuits, but generally more geared toward jet-skiiers. I was going to suggest the Performance bike catalogue where I got my triathlete's farmer-john suit for only $60, but I checked and they no longer carry them -- sorry...
