DIR take on drysuit.

Related side question: Is there any particular stance on the TLS350 vs. the CLX450, assuming the suit fits you well and grants you sufficient mobility to perform all required drills?

I know it doesn't matter from a practical standpoint, at least, early in the training process. MHK won't kick me out of fundies for wearing a CLX450. But I'm still curious about the overall big picture.

There was a gentleman diving in the WKPP this summer with a Viking. He was in my Fundies class with that same suit.

OMG! He's going to die from the rubber suit of death!

In all honesty they seem to be very durable suits. I know two people locally that dive in viking suits and both of them have owned their suits for 18+ years. It's pretty safe to say that they have gotten their money's worth out of the suits.

Nobody said anything about my 450 during Cave 1 or 2.
