Question: Zoot Wave 2 or Roka Maverick Pro? - 1st Time Wetsuit Buyer

I am new and never touched a wetsuit. I just ordered a Zoot Wave 2 to see how it fits/feels. I wonder if I should also order a Roka Maverick Pro and ty it as well, then return the one I dont like?

Or, do you think I am good with the Zoot Wave 2? Since it will be my 1st, will I even notice a difference in the two wetsuits?

I am able to try these on, but not test them in the water. So, I will not know which one is actually the best feeling in the water. But, I am in a hurry and need to start swimming in one ASAP to be used to it for New Orleans.

My Zoot just arrived. Havent tried it on.

I have a (female) Maverick Pro and love it. It replaced an older Zoot that was great, but the Maverick is much better. Easy on the shoulders as long as I scootch the arms up so there is wiggle room and plenty of bouancy around the legs. But, trying both would be a good plan just to make sure.

Might as well get as many as you can test. I’ll toss a recommendation out there for a BlueSeventy Helix. I also personally really love sleeveless suits as well. Always have. Swimming in a wetsuit is a little different so don’t be afraid to even find a pool or something.

If the price difference doesn’t bother you, go for the Roka, got the more flexible neoprene, especially on the shoulders. Love mine.

Hey Spartan420,

Sorry for the delay here! We do have a 30 day return and exchange policy for our wetsuits. We encourage you to test the new suit in the water to ensure it is the right fit. Maverick wetsuits tend to feel tighter on land than in the water. If your suit is a little tight on land, you can be assured that it will loosen up once you get in the water
We’re happy to help with sizing as well - we have specialists standing by Monday - Friday 8a-8p and Saturday 9a-5p. Our number is 877-985-7652.

Please let us know if you have any questions!

Best,
Jessica

I kept the Maverick Pro over the Zoot and so far love it.
