Buoyancy of Fusion Skins.

[The Mighty Thor]

How buoyant are the fusions alone?
Does anyone know how much weight it takes to sink a fusion tech drysuit, without the undergaments?

I'm diving in about 65-70 degree water and was thinking of just wearing a light underarmour shirt, shorts underneath. I usually wear a fourth element artic underneath in cold water and want to know how much weight I can expect to shed. I realize it is an estimate.

I switched from the lycra skin to the tech skin and noticed no real difference. It may have about a pound of buoyancy total - then neoprene is 1mm and it only covers about half the suit, so it is not a big deal.

I dive a Fusion sport LG/XL.
With a Mk0 undergarment, I needed the same weight as diving a 5mm wetsuit.
Since the Tech skin is made of neoprene, it should be slightly more buoyant than the sport skin, but probably not much.

Hope this helps

The tech LE skin it self = 2 more kilos (4 pounds)
