I have a RipCurl Flash Bomb wetsuit.  Love it.  Picked it up at a Rip Curl sample sale for cheap and I have had it for 5-6 years still looks new.

I love my Flash Bomb 3/2.  I have an Oneil Heat 3/2 as well that works good.  The Ripcurl fits me better since I am more slender.

Well now the largest widebody boat is same as the lil narrow bodies.

Not sure what has more wasted space a new 25lsv or an x26? 

Boats are following in Boeing and Airbus footsteps, let's build a bigger one with less space!

Which ONeill suit do you speak of? Also I guess comp vests go over these suits no issues?

I believe this is the model my friend has. 
 

I wear my comp vest under my boost dry suit. Some don’t wear one at all but I don’t recommend that. With the tighter fitting vests most people I know wear a bigger than normal for them coast guard approved vest. If you blow a seam you could have your entire suit fill with water before the boat gets back to you.

Does anyone know if I can stash/hide the 50 pound leadwake bags in the bow of the 2020 23 LSV? Im going to want to add around 100 - 200 pounds permanently up front but will have to buy the 25s if the 50s wont hide

I've also heard guys pulling out the front speakers and stashing some lead in the hole and then putting speakers back in.  I have no idea how much room is in there.  This is one of the reasons I decided to go with a MXZ was because of the plentiful space for lead bags in the bow. (and of course the huge bow seating) 

You have all kinds of room behind the sub. You will lose a little room in the observers side on the floor but it will be balanced if you do stash weight behind the sub.
