I'm 6'2". Having a suit cut "a little long" is never a problem.

Per Bob Gramann:
I've had this drysuit
(http://www.nrsweb.com/shop/product.a...eptid=1174)for 3
seasons
so far. It is the best drysuit I have ever owned. The attached booties
make it easy to get in and out of. It is warm and comfortable, and
because
it is breathable, sweat doesn't condense on the inside. I'm a whitewater
boater, so I can't promise it will be as good in the ocean, but it is a
great suit for whitewater and a good value. One of my friends had a two
piece--it took him a while to get in and a while to get out.

That looks identical to the Kokatat that I use for flat-water
paddling.

There is *nothing* more comfortable or easier to get in/out of.

But for surf, it doesn't work for me. The problem is that the
legs get vacuum bagged when one wipes out and that effect
severely limits motion - especially if the crotch has worked it's
way down a foot or so as it will if the body is cut a little
long. You can wind up in the shore break unable to stand up
until you lay back in the water and wiggle around enough to get
the crotch up where it belongs.
