Not so much generosity as not wanting a pretty carefully chosen* collection go to the landfill without anyone getting some enjoyment. It's serious rereational equipment. If I learned anything in college, it was that recreation matters. Of course I hung out with the Rec & Parks majors.

*I was a clearance-sale vulture. Even Matuse. There were lots of problems with changing body size, so I was often chasing after some change in weight or prepping for going somewhere. A Matuse suffered a zipper failure at Piha beach, New Zealand. Goldfinger will recognize that one.

Still some good XXLs to be had, including one shorty and two 5/4s (Patagonia and Quik), neither hooded, for those thinking of NC.

Nice meeting you WW. Thanks for the suits! They'll get plenty of use.

To Mike: I'm possibly available Fri. evening 15th, late Saturday (have a likely full-day trip to Orlando), and Sunday for sure. Having problems with phone messaging.

Mike picked up what he most needed, so the list has been pruned again.

Last leftovers.

Adelio 2/2 mm short arm steamer Conner. Small Austr. brand that sells in the US and even had black Friday specials, fit is a bit tight by XXL standards.

Xterra 4/3, 3/2 size XL, which is equivalent to everyone else's XXL. They are sort of heavy and construction is odd, too many pieces of rubber, and it looks like they're quitting surfing wetsuits, sticking to their main business of triathlon suits. Still, useful.
