I've been wanting to get one of those for a while to replace my Level Six winter top but I wanted to see one in store first. Sadly the only place in the world they have them in store is Hood River so I'll have to check yours out next time I see you on the water.

While my Level Six top is decent, it's a bit too baggy and the arms fill up with water. I like the high vis and reflective strips for winter though.

I like the level six tops, nearly bought one.

The arm cuffs are quite snug on the Pro Motion, it didn't seem to take on any water. The sizing is quite small, go by the guide on their site. I bought an XXL, for over my MT wetsuit, fit is perfect.

It has a high collar neck and the rubber was a little grabby when I turned my head. I didn't get a rash though (only 2.5 Hr session). Should not be an issue in winter as I will be wearing my hooded rash guard. On the plus side it made my 4/3 backzip uncomfortably warm today.

You are free to try it, hopefully next weekend. :D
