I’ve used the athlex float for the past year and been a big fan. Very flexible and great fit. I swim only in open water so I use my wetsuit a lot. I get about 1 year out of my suits. I don’t think yamamoto neoprene in general holds up has good as standard 39 or 40, but I will never got back to a non yamamto suit after using one. It’s just better in every other way. I was going to upgrade to the Apex float, but swiminn kept delaying my order for over 2 months so I canceled it and bought a Quintana Roo suit.
