Let me know I would love to get together for some underwater fun.
Finally got the dry suits in the water (other than the pool - BORING!) this past weekend at Lake Rawlings. All I can say is, WOW!!! Dry is definitely the way to go in cold water. Ace, you're right. I'm spoiled. Anything that requires more than 3 mil is getting the dry suit from now on. Maybe I should sell my 7mil.
The first dive was a bit interesting, but neither one of us really had much trouble getting used to controlling our buoyancy. Our feet were getting a little positive on us for a while, but by the end of the second dive we had that under control. By the third dive the suit felt like an old friend. Even LadyDog, who is never too excited about cold water diving, was loving life. She's already talking about some Great Lakes wreck trips this summer. I can't wait.
Thanks to everyone who offered help and advice on this thread. The experiences you relayed to us were very helpful.
DRY ROCKS!!!

It's not the destination, it's the journey.
Sounds great I might be trying it soon. I was offered a DUI flx 50/50 which I believe is a pretty good suit for an ok price, well a lot better than new but I was wondering how long they last. The suit was used once in a pool and has been in storage for nine years. It looks good pretty much new but is that kind of old that will require a lot of service?
