Ok, what do the people prefer? Front entry dry suit enrty or back entry? I'm ordering back dry suit entry. Less zipper to fail. Let's see the numbers!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Front entry -- I can doff and don the suit myself, though with help it's a lot easier.
 
I just got my front entry and found it still can be a bear to get off. I had back entry for my classes and went to the front for ease of zipper and self donning. It took about three times of putting it on and off to get it down as to the easiest method. I have an Andys with Andys undies, makes the 35-40 degree water non issue for dives.

Had both. First was back entry. Big part of the reason to switch was to get the front loader.
