So, I'm looking at buying a new drysuit.
The choices seem to be a Whites Nexus shell or a Bare Nex Gen. I'm considering getting an all-in-one deal (hood, underwear, drysuit -- and the trek boots in the case of the Nex Gen).
Anybody have experience with these in our waters, or have any general advice on those looking to finally upgrade.
My one concern is regarding the toughness of the suits for diving at the breakwater. I've dove there a couple times where the exit hasn't been exactly elegant, climbing up on the steps, especially if there is some nice wave action. Is puncturing the suit really much of a concern? And is either suit more durable?
Thanks.
