OK....I cant take it anymore!!! I need to dive more....this is getting way to depressing.

When Belushi and I were walking round Dive 2001 all i could see for miles were drysuits. Belushi was interested in a DUI but they didnt stock his size so he didnt get one.

But, I guess I am going to have to buckle and also get a dry-suit soon. I dont want to get anything expensive cause at the moment i wont be using it the regularly but I want a dry-suit that will do the job of keeping out the uk waters - i've seen some of the stuff that goes into it - eek!

I am fussy in the fact i dont like things being really baggy so neoprene is very very good for me....has anyone heard of a decent but inexpensive drysuit knocking about at the moment and has anyone tried one???

I am not planning to get this for a couple of months...at the moment moneys are spent on learning to drive so it'll be a couple of months (might even smile sweetly at the parents for a christmas present!!!)

Cheers in advance!
 
So scubababy enquiring minds want to know... Why EXACTLY don't you like baggy clothes...

This should be interesting. Butch grab me a beer too and lets sit down and hear this explanation....
 
I'm imagining a lycra undersuit would suit....

Butch bought one after seeing how easily I got into my wetsuit, but I'm positive neither of us should be used as models. Just ask DivingGal, she survived the sight but may have been traumatized!

But, I digress........

I was very surprised by the number of divers who wear drysuits, and that's here in the Great White North. What the water temp like ScubaBaby? Won't a good 7mm with extra hooded shortie overtop handle things?

Bottom-Sucker.....I live in the UK....I got cold where a 200-undersuit and a drysuit in out waters !!!

Syruss, the reason i dont like baggy clothes...i find the uncomfortable, and i dont like t-shirts and baggy trousers cause i have to keep checking that i am wearing clothes! As for baggy drysuits...i just hate the feel of bagginess.....cant really explain it!!
