Re: Drysuit Recommendations (Revisited)
Jeff,
Welcome to what was a pretty long thread before someone deleted it ;D Not sure if you had a chance to read it or not. I like the neoprene neck seal because it is warmer than the neoprene seal I had before. It seemed that with the neoprene seal, there was always a bare spot on the back of my neck that was cold for obvious reasons. They are also quite comfortable, and would be easier to make a boat repair on than a latex seal that would have a tendency to tear at a puncture point. As for boots, I have integrated boots on my Bare Trilam ATR-HD, and I'm not a big fan. They make it very difficult to get off, hold a bunch of air, I have size 13 feet, and make it so I have to wear Turtle fins, which are the equivalent of swimming with wet lasagna noodles on your feet. This winter, I will probably send my suit to Superior Drysuit repair and have Turbosoles put on it. Bare offers a sock and external boots, but not a sock with a sole on it. Omicron, on the other hand, likes the Bare integrated boots for their durability. Dry Gloves are a must as you have mentioned. While we are on the subject, I just picked up some Mountain Hardwear, Powerstretch liners and they are great. They aren't bulky and very warm. I noticed that Mountain Hardwear also makes a Scuba Liner, but I haven't tried it. Stop by Divepoint Scuba and pick up a pair. |
