Any thoughts on sizing? I am 5'11", 150 pounds, waist 32", chest 40"--I was thinking a size 26. The local distributor only stocks the Point Zero but will be contacting the company Monday. They may try to have a few sizes shipped.

Just an FYI. I received a B70 full body size 28 as a gift from my wife. I am 5'8, 175lbs, and 42/32 chest/waist. The B70 sizing guide says size 26 for someone my height but > 28 for my chest/waist.
I tried it on dry last night. Difficult to pull past my heels, but after that it was a steady, patient effort to pull it up my thighs. I eventually pulled it on completely with a bit of help. My wife thought zippering was relatively easy once it was over the shoulders. I didn't pull it up enough into the crotch area. If I had it would have gone over the shoulders easier. I generated a bit of sweat getting in on. I have an air pocket in my lower back. I do not see how a size change would eliminate it. I guess I'll try to get the air pushed out when time comes to racing.
I have not been in the water with it.
Based on the dry fit - this is the right size, all things considered. It was by far the most snug suit I have worn but I did not feel mega uncomfortable. The length was OK. I am a ***/IM guy - but I am comfortable with the full legs.
