Repairing Wetsuits!

Hi all
Am currently juggling sport addiction with a shoe fetish (it's a gal thing...) so do triathlon on a limited budget. As such, finally managed to get my mitts on a wetsuit over Christmas at knock-back prices as some young lady had got her claws into the suit - literally. Is it okay to mend this with wetsuit glue? When I looked it up on the websites, all the glues seemed to be for surfing. Are surf wetsuits different material? - I haven't got a clue!
Assuming I can use surf glue, what is the best type of glue to use to repair it?

I was chatting to the guy in my local tri-shop last week about wetsuit repair. Apparently superglue is the best thing for it, although if it's a big tear, then getting someone who knows what they're doing to fix it may be a better bet!
