Unless you wear alot of underwear, you should drop some lead.

I went from 36lbs in a one piece 7mil to 22lbs in a cf200, same hood, same gloves, same bc, etc... And that is with silk underwear, a one piece polartec and a sweatshirt under the cf200.

I know guys that dive both wet and dry (Inever dive wet anymore) and they always go down in weight with their cf200s.

I' sure I will drop some more weight. I have a whole 6 dives in the dry suit, all with 200 polartec.

salt or fresh?

I don't know if it was saltwater or freshwater. I thought I'd shoot them an e-mail and ask, but I can't get the site right now.

When I first used my CF200X I had to use less weight compared to an Otter Skin (membrane suit).

Probably because the CF200 is much closer fitting compared to other membrane suits. The material is stretchy, so you still have excellent range of motion. I love the suit.

I never experienced large bouyancy changes under water either.

YMMV
