Presently looking for an alternative to Warmbac. Does anybody here have any time/experience with Seland Canyoning wetsuits?

The benefit of this approach is a very well cut suit with pre bent elbows and knees using very flexible neoprene, and no zips, other than the pee zip I added myself.
The caving wetsuits I have seen are much tougher but seem like suits of armour by comparison.

The downside of using watersports wetsuits for caving is that they tend to have a rear zip. While this isn't an issue when you are wet caving on drier sections I find I overheat, which is where a front zip comes into its own.
