here is the follow-up from the comparison that a sveral people have requested. Had a chance to try the assult before the boost came in.

Assult- nice hybrid suit.
however it did let water in.
i dont know if it was a sizing thing -needed a xl for the chest and a large for the rest of the suit ( i have a unusual build- 43/44 chest and 33 waist). hence it could of been my sizing
had a hard time wearing a shirt underneath, it would bunch up. would suggest a rash guard
it was comfortable and moved really well for neophrene.
would suggest trying if one is a "classic" neophrene wet suit wearer.
excellent durability

boost- one word....."WOW"... (used with polar fleece top and pants).
took on a little water around the neck when taking a hard spill but that is it.
easy to get in and out of.
the suspenders are really comfortable and allows for the weight to be distributed more evenly.
once all the air is out. the suit is more streamline.
will require more matinance and a reseal every 2-3 years ( $50 from oneill)

hope that helps,

mike
