Anybody have any better how-to's than what are already posted on SB for installing these little *******s on to your drysuit? I've spent the past 3 hours trying to get even one of the rings on to the suit. At this point, I've got KY jelly all over my drysuit and half the living room, I've managed to shatter one of the suit rings into a thousand little pieces, and I still haven't managed to get any further than I was 3 hours ago. My only solace is that I have 2 of all the pieces because of a friend who no longer dives, so I can continue trying to tear this crap apart.
I can get the ring in the suit with the arm inside out, then I can put the o-ring on and start manipulating it backwards, right-side out again, but only get about 30% of the ring right side out before it's completely stuck and there's no budging, period. I just can't imagine anybody has dry gloves if it's this difficult. What magical step or alternative method am I missing?
