I forgot my wetsuit this morning... had to dive in my board shorts...

froze my freakin azz off!!!!!!!!!!

Luckily a second boat came out and gave me my 5mm for the second dive.. i didn't freeze...

Pao... some people need more suit than others... if you dive daily you get cold faster than those who don't...

Hey Mikey, I thought it was the other way around? I've always thought that if you dive daily, your tolerance for cold water diving increases. How cold does it get there in Yap? I've been diving on a 5mm wetsuit in water as cold as 17 degrees...but then again, I don't dive daily to know the difference.

why did you leave the philippines by the way and miss out on no wetsuit diving?

the only other locally available 0.5mm is by mares. price range for either scubapro or mares is between 4000-8000 i think

well worth the price if the insulation is enough for you. the weight of a stainless steel backplate is enough to descend
