Did my first Ice dive today,,, was pretty cool, had some equipment problems tho, well, not so much equipment as I was thinking that I normally dive with a 3 mil wet suit, thought for the ice dive, I'd need heavier,, well, I got with my LDS that was putting on the dive, he said I should try it with my 3 mil, but I said no,, I want the heavier suit, so we put together what he had for me to use,, a 5 mil farmer john, and a 7 mil top.. oh no, it was way to tight, same size as my three mil, but way to snug,, I couldnt breath,, so, the dive only lasted between 10 and 15 minutes,, was pretty cool tho,, I didnt get deep cuz I just didnt seem to have enough weight, had 34 pounds on, usually go with 16 on my 3 mil.. it was an experience tho,, I am goin back out tomorrow,, with the 3 mil. The only place I had any cold feeling was at my right wrist, not enough to bother me, but I could feel it.. the water was 38 degrees..
We'll see how it goes tomorrow. Anyone out there ever ice dive with a 3 mil?
