Hi guys,
Now, I know this is a complicated question - but I'm starting to feel the chill of winter, especially on deeper dives, so I'm beginning to consider a dry suit. It seems like there's so much information on the topic out there, but I'd like to get some real opinions from real divers.
So, I'm purely a rec diver at the moment, but am planning on doing some tech training over the next 12 months, so I'd like whatever I purchase to be good for all that (deep, cold, wrecks). Plus planning on diving in NZ. I'm still using BCD rather than backplate/wings, if that matters.
So, um, crushed neo vs trilam? Front vs rear entry? Brands? Undersuits?
I'm actually going to the states in a couple of weeks, so if there is an option to save some serious money by purchasing there, please let me know!
Thanks in advance,
Simon
