my silicone seals fit perfectly without having to cut. Normal?

[Reku]

my drysuit seals don't need to be cut - is this normal or am I freak of nature?

You are a freak of nature...

No, while it doesn't happen all the time....there are quite a few that can just "slip into" a suit with an untrimmed seal.

I don't cut mine either and I am by no means small . With the silicone seals I don't have to cut them, they're more accommodating of varying neck sizes then latex. That being said they are a bit snug on the surface, underwater I don't even feel them at all.

I'm 6 foot and 185 pounds. Don't cut them either. Silicone rocks.

Me too, a small silicone fits perfect without trimming, which is weird as almost nothing fits me properly due to odd proportions, I need custom suits, fins and masks that fit are very hard to find etc guess I'm a freak.

Not cutting them is normal for me.

I can only imagine the horrors of a slight wrong movement while trimming a $60 piece of rubber in a perfectly straight line.

 

[buddhasummer]

It doesn't need to be perfectly straight, just continuous. I cut my first latex seal and it wasn't as difficult as I'd imagined, was rather nervous though.

Don't cut mine either.
