    Review Seaskin Nova drysuit

    I think you're the first that got suit shipped ahead of schedule. Usually it's 2 weeks late.

    which p-valve model?

    I bought large syringe for flushing it. Turns out, flow is so unimpeded, just holding the hose up and pouring water/vinegar mix down works. I have done nothing else so far.

    Review Seaskin Nova drysuit

    Perfecting Trim

    Before doing anything else, deal with head heavy feel. Keep perfectly still and see how you will be positioned. Due to mask's field of vision limitations, people tend to be a bit heads up, even though they feel perfectly horizontal. Ergo, when you do get horizontal, you feel head heavy.

    Review Seaskin Nova drysuit

    Nope, they are snug and soft. TBH, I did not really understand what boots are standard option (same as Santi Enduro), I would go with them. Way more durable and not that hard to use.

    Review Seaskin Nova drysuit

    I'm using simple warm neck and have no problems to tuck bib under it. I prefer to do it before I kit up just to avoid all the crap on shoulders and chest, but have no problems to do it afterwards.

    Review Seaskin Nova drysuit

    Unless you are crawling over those rocks, you should be good. If you decide to go with Seaskin, in your case I would go for neoprene socks and rock boots. If you are crawling, Santi Enduro, SF Tech, Ursuit Cordura and similar should be your choice.

    High end drysuit comparability

    That post is 5 years old, last I heard is that Otter is not that friendly anymore. Same with Santi. My instructor bought Santi suits with a group of friends about 10 or so years ago. They got factory tour and had nice chat with the boss himself. 2 years ago, my club bought 11 suits. They...

    High end drysuit comparability

    Sorry, but I feel that is wrong. My experience is that Seaskin is tight cut, but people tend to "pad" their numbers, even though Seaskin's instructions specifically tells not to. Also, some suits are ordered with "thick undergarments" option, which adds to overall size in certain areas. If...

    Also, measure yourself at least 3 times, best over a course of a week. Go with biggest numbers.
