Wetsuits are all about fit so it's hard to say which one is truly better than another. It comes down to the materials, construction, and what you think of the company. I own the Roka Maverick X and it really is incredible. Check them out! 30 days to try the suit and if it doesn't work, send it back.

Thanks! I have a really short torso and overall short build. Do you know if Roka runs long?

Check out the Roka sizing charts. I found the charts to be a perfect fit for me.

Contact the Roka people, they have outstanding customer service to consult on fit issues.
And then swim in whatever they recommend, and return it and only be out shipping if you don't like it.

I've found that Blueseventy does do a good job with shorter-torso'd individuals as compared to some others. But as Bryan mentioned, fit is key. If you can swing into a shop to try some on, I think you'll get a better sense of things.

Roka's the best. Bar none. The business was created by Stanford students, who happened to be Stanford swimmers, c'mon. You look like a hack if you show up to a race in anything else. Kinda like if I'm standing in the corral and looking at your goggles. If you aren't wearing Swedes I pretty much know I'm going to kick your ass. At least make your competition wonder who you are. The bike, yea well, that's a different story, I see lots of really nice bikes pass me.
