This is from Dakine which is a good brand.

Also it's a £400 suit that I got in a closing down sale for £120 🤑

I have a 4/3 which is OK for much of the year,

and I do have a Rashie with hood that I can put under it, however it's a few years old now and when the temperature gets down below about 10 degrees C (especially if it's windy) I really want something warmer 😕

Terry W Problem is, I just took a skiing holiday in the Alps.

I can get waves here, I can't get mountains...

I've seen suggestions about hair conditioner, but I'd be dubious about the effects it might have on the suit and the environment, hence why I'd prefer a properly designed product.

Tom Tebbatt Yes, I've only worn it twice.

It's annoying because there's nice conditions today, but I just don't have the energy to fight the wetsuit and surf ☹️

Hadyn Wood Hope you manage to get out today, Saunton is looking sweet 🤙

But apart from that, you're OK... 🤔

It's really difficult to see anything (to start with I couldn't even tell which surfer was you!)

But, at a guess, judging by what I can see, I'd think that you're not on the front foot, your back arm seems to be going behind your back and probably your front arm is blocking your twist.

Try getting more on the front foot, lifting the front elbow and putting it in your back pocket which may help.

I would say your best move would be to get a Bosu ball and a surf skate and practise stacking on the front foot and keeping your coffee cup arm (back arm) forward.
