The suit is rear entry via a large zip across the shoulders and must say that it has never proved to be a problem in fact it runs more easily then my other more expensive drysuits.

I bought my Typhoon nexus drysuit 6 years ago from new, and so far have used it on around110 dives in the UK in a wide variety of conditions from fresh water lakes in winter to off shore boat dives in the summer.
It comes in at the entry level price range for a membrain suit made from nylon trilaminate it is not that hard wearing compared to the more expensive suits and it will start to wear on the high friction parts such as inside leg and knee areas but this is easily fixed with a 2 pac adhesive such as Aquabond by Beaver.
The suit is rear entry via a large zip across the shoulders and must say that it has never proved to be a problem in fact it runs more easily then my other more expensive drysuits. It has a dump valve at the wrist which is simply raised above your head to expell unwanted air. The wrist and neck seals are heavy duty and mine lasted well into the second year before they needed changing approximatley 80 dives. The boots are also heavy duty with a thick sole which is vital for shore dives which may have rocky entry and exit points. It also comes with braces and Apeks infator and hose.
An ideal drysuit for new comers who want to get into the sport on a budget.
