Wetsuit sizing question?

In shopping around for a wetsuit, I've often encountered the issue of size. On the size chart for the one I'm considering purchasing, the different sizes are broken down into measurements of chest, waist, hips and height. I'm 6'2" which puts me in the height range for an XXL, but all three of my other measurements are in (or below in one case) the ranges for a small. I need it to be long enough otherwise there's no point spending the money when I already have a shorty, but I also don't want it to be extremely loose and have flushing be an issue. I will have boots and gloves that could make up a small length discrepancy, so maybe go with a M or L to get a little length but still be pretty snug?
