When we set out to create Hawaii’s best spearfishing and freediving suit, we held nothing back. We chose the very best eco-friendly neoprene because of it’s excellent performance characteristics and assembled our suit with bombproof and extremely durable glue-over-stitch bonding. When you put on a WAIHANA Goliath Grouper Wetsuit, you will feel the quality immediately, while brilliant additions like an integrated distress whistle located on the shoulder will keep you feeling safe all day. Our titanium dioxide lining makes it a breeze to slip into the suit while underway, and with thick screen printing, you won’t go sliding around above deck. Buy Local. By Locals. WAIHANA.
The Goliath Grouper, or itajara (Epinephelus itajara), also known as “jewfish”, is a large saltwater fish of the grouper family found primarily in shallow tropical waters among coral and artificial reefs at depths from 5 to 50 m (16 to 164 ft). Its range includes the Florida Keys in the US, the Bahamas, most of the Caribbean and most of the Brazilian coast. On some occasions, it is caught off the coasts of the US states of New England off Maine and Massachusetts. In the eastern Atlantic Ocean, it occurs from the Congo to Senegal. [wikipedia]

The only reason why I gave this 3 stars was because after about 4 dives the glue on a small portion of the waist came undone. The area where the glue came off is only about 1/2 inch and was still held together by the stitching. I easily fixed it with my own glue, but I don’t think this should have happened as soon as it did. I am very gentle with the wetsuit when putting it on and taking it off so I really don’t think it is from me, but it could be. Overall, I really like the wetsuit and I would have given it 5 stars if it wasn’t for this issue.
