An alternate title to this thread could be... Cold Water Diving - Ghetto-Style...
So, I'll be doing my first ever cold water diving pretty soon, and I don't want to invest in a drysuit until I have the opportunity to try on (quite) a few first; unfortunately, I'll have to wait until I get to a larger metro area to do that.
Until then... I have 2 summer-weight wetsuits... a long and a shorty. They're about 2-3mil each. I'm pretty sure I can get both on without too much difficulty or discomfort. Other than possibly having to add a little more weight to compensate for the added buoyancy, does anyone see any reason I can't or (more importantly) shouldn't try this out in the local lakes?
