The O'Neill Mutant wetsuit all new for the 2009 / 2010 season. The O'Neill Mutant
has a few new color options for 2010, there's also a new Ultraflex
firewall that's lighter and more flexible. You still get the liquid
welded seams, the patented chest zip entry and the added flexibility
and comfort of an O'Neill chest zip wetsuit. When it ain't broke, you
don't fix it and the O'Neill Mutant 4/3 is a keeper.

Review: 2010 O'Neill Mutant 4/3 Model 3163
The O'Neill Mutants are basically an O'Neill Psycho 1 with a chest
entry system. The added benefits of chest zip are a reduced flush when
duck diving, no seeping back zipper and a much easier time paddling.
Why is the O'Neill Mutant easier to paddle, because zippers don't
stretch. When you eliminate that back zipper, you get a whole new
direction of stretch in a wetsuit and it's amazing how much easier it
is to paddle in a chest zip than a back zip. Another thing that the
O'Neill Mutant all but eliminates is the duck-dive flush. Without the
zipper flap, you don't have a gap in the neck for water to enter and
that means you stay drier and warmer. The one drawback to the O'Neill
Mutant wetsuit is getting in and out of the suit. I have a 42" chest
and wear a MS wetsuit and getting in and out of the suit, especially
the first few times, can be a challenge, but with all the added
benefits, it's something I am willing to do. Overall, the O'Neill
Mutant is a great bargain on an excellent wetsuit that's going to keep
you warm while staying flexible.
