This is a company that has been practicing Full-Saturation Marketing over the past few years. It is almost impossible to open an Asian outdoor or scuba magazine without seeing an advert. So the question to divers not based in Asia is: Is this Hot or Not?
[They also carry a women's line but it's not quite as peacock-y as the men's version )
I am not based in Asia, but I like the way that first on looks (the 5mm Power full). I always thought it would be really cool to have a completely black suit, with a skeleton printed on it. It would probablly be really tacky, but I still think I would like it. I also really like the camo wetsuits that seem to be popular with freedivers.
Skeleton? I was thinking more along the lines of Spiderman or Batman. These wetsuits need to come with a user guide:
*To assemble your own custom Superhero suit you'll need a brightly coloured towel for a cape, contrasting neoprene booties & speedos....* *Additional purchase of the new Poseidon Backplate harness with that huge round buckle is also highly reccomended to complete the look!*
Silly yes, but it still seems to impress!
Overheard in the Ladies room on a recent trip to the Bahamas:
"Wow! The view has improved!"
"What...from last time?"
"Since the shop brought in those new wetsuits, all the old-men butts now look like decent-butts...."

I recognize that backplate from Our World Underwater Show in Chicago last year.....now used on the Cis-Lunar Mk VI as seen hanging off my backside from the DEMA show this October.
I don't think a tight suit can make am overweight guy look like his backside is BAM! I'll stick with mountain biking.
Being stuck in the showroom during a typhoon & having access to all sorts of bits & bobs, I briefly considered pimping my reg with swarovski crystals but was unsure of how that would affect service & warranty
If anyone's interested, I can make your reg match one of the suits above
