I want to get a new suit and have been using a T1 Dos and am thinking of upgrading. Don’t have any near me to test drive so hoping someone out there can give me a review.
i love it…highly recommend

i just got it this year and think it is the greatest wetsuit ever. my previous 2 were a orca predator 2 and a QR superfull (or something like that). I really worked on my swim this winter so can’t so much let my wetsuit take all the credit but by 1500 times are 5-6 minutes faster this year.
The biggest differences between the DeSoto and other suits I tried are in 1) shoulder range of motion - it is actually better than non-restrictive, it seems to “force” my arms up and forward - and 2)I seem to be able to get into a really good, noteiceably different “downhill” swim position.
I really don’t think you can get better for any amount of money.
I just got one a couple of weeks ago. I love it! It is really easy to get on/off, and very comfortable to swim in.
Love it. Bought the more expensive upper and the cheaper bottom.
I did a quick review on mine a few months ago. Its da bomb
If you have the Dos bottom, just buy the First Wave top. I tore my T1 top (in a moving-boxes-around-in-the-garage accident) and got a new First Wave to replace it. I don’t think it is any better than the first generation top, but it is very nice and I guess the zipper will come in handy when I’m too old and weak to pull off the old style top.
Love mine. Buy it.
… unbelievable flotation. I stopped to pee 100 yards from the beach… My nipples were almost out of the water!
