I've had this problem since my purchase of my techniflex suit back in November.
The shoulder seems to collapse and sit too close to my undergarment (exo 2) to such a point that purging is near impossible. The valve is fully open and seems to be functioning, i.e. on the surface it's fine.
I'm beginning to suspect the material around the valve isn't stiff enough and allows the suit squeeze to create a vacuum that doesnt release. Sadly, this is bad enough that I don't really use the suit for buoyancy control and I just live with the suit squeeze.
Is there a trick to these suits or could there be something wrong? I've taken it into my LDS and they didnt find any defects.
