Hello All -
I finally got to dive my 905 in real water! Yay!
It went really well. I had a bit too much air in the suit at the end of the second dive, but it was very manageable.
I was not using the suit for bouyancy control. Just enough air to take the squeeze off. I still managed to get a small slug of air in the suit that I just couldn't vent. If it had been bigger, I would have vented it out through the wrist seal. Of course, if it had been bigger, I would have vented it through the vent. Hmm.
Nice suit. I think I would like a self-donning zipper. Teaching someone else on the boat how to zip a drysuit zipper may become a pain.
I was nice and warm during the SI. No desperate shucking of the wetsuit! No teeth chattering or goosebumps.
Drysuits rock.
