i got a longsleeve no pant rip curl ebomb 1.5/2mm, not sure... but anyways i thought it was a large or medium but when i tried it on, it had like rolls and it didn't seem so straight and smooth because it crease out, i'm 155-160lbs... and its an x large

is this gonna even keep me warmer? thanks

it should be tight enough to follow the curves of ur body no creases or it wont trap heat inside

a wetsuit needs to be skin tight. sometimes the arms or legs may be a little long causing it to bunch a bit, but this is fine.

you should be in a small or medium.
a too large wetsuit will let too much water wash in and out and you will never be warmer in it.
buy one that fits tight/snug or as the germans say gooodentight

At least it is probably easy to put on. The tight, heavy neo tops are a pita to put on and take off. But X-Large is probably too big. I'm the same weight as you and wear an M.
