Just another tip for the use of innertubes, In commercial diving where We ruin lots of cuffs on all kinds of drysuits, cut a section of tube and use them as rubber bands to tighten the cuffs on drysuits that are well used. This will help control the burbing of air through loose fitting cuffs. Of course, replacing the cuffs will be the best solution but, if diving in a remote location, this will help continue diving.
As a Commercial Diver, I also take an innertube patch kit to repair latex wrist seals. I brought a rather large patch kit when I worked in Mexico...months at end at a very remote Island. I was putting the neck dam over my Head and tore the neck seal. No way to get a new one and no time to send it out. I used the patch kit on both sides of the 6" tear and within an Hour, back to work. It held for 2 months and about 190hrs underwater!
Just food for thought Bill
