Hi Guys,
I had this conversation with my wife and we couldn't work out the reason. In the US, it seems that 90% of dry suit divers use a shell suit. In the UK I've seen mostly neoprene and a smaller proportion of crushed neoprene. In all the pictures I see form my old BSAC branch, everyone who is diving dry has a neoprene suit. I'm just curious if shell suits are available in the UK and if so, why they aren't as popular.
Thanks!
