Yes, and it's quite a simple operation given you have the tools and materials it's a couple hours job

So if i bought like a surface drysuit for surface swimming could i put valves on it for diving?
Just be aware that most (not all) surface suits use a lighter weight zipper than diving suits they won't hold up as well.
Interesting. I actually have a semi-dry without valves that I stopped using because of squeeze. I've never gotten so much as leak of water. Does anyone have instructions on how to add an inflation valve and a dump valve?

airspeed press has a nice book on drysuit and wet suit repairs.
