Review Seaskin Nova drysuit

[eja12a]

What'd you order? We need details to make you second guess everything!

Haha of course I haven’t been doing that quite enough yet…

All black with gray stitching
Telescopic torso
Plastic zip with cover
Light monkey balanced p valve
Hose tidy
Orust neck system
SLAGGO wrist rings
DIR dump
Comfort inflation patch
Neoprene socks
Kevlar knee pads
40mm suspenders
Left&right expedition pockets
Computer straps
No logos/reflective tape

And for reference I’m a Florida cave diver so water temps are 68-72 year round

Nice sounding suit! Are you narrow in the shoulders or female? Only reason I ask is the orust system works great for those but you are at risk of losing those stupid clips. Sitech quick neck is almost the go to choice for standard breadth shouldered men.

I am not, am an average dude. I did buy extra clips in case I lose them. TBH I wasn’t sure which of the 2 systems to go with. I had heard the orust is more flexible so that’s why I chose it.

I went with sitech because I will lose and break the damn things. I don't notice mine at all above or below the water. I'm pretty average shoulder as well.

Are there glove systems for the SLAGGO rings?

I’m not sure? I don’t intend to wear dry gloves with the suit.

I'm envious

Yeah, 45-48° water is nothing gets wet temps imo. If I could swing it I'd have a dry hood but the beard means nothing is sealed near my face.

Light monkey balanced p valve No
Orust neck system NO!
SLAGGO wrist rings NOOOOOOO!

Actually, it's fine, except Orust.

Which neck seal do you recommend?
