Familiar with USIA Drysuits?

[twinpop]

Hello,

I just got my drysuit, a USIA Aqua Pro Plus with the Exotherm II thermal suit. It was a custom fitted model. Unfortunately I am going to be hardpressed to try it out too much before I go on my dives - so.cal is running in the high 90's - water temp is still in the mid-high 50's. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Kevin

I've had a USIA suit for years and I love mine. It's an Aqua Pro (before they made the Plus). It's over 10 years old with hundreds of dives on it. I've had new seals put on it 3 times over the years but never any major problems. I would recommend them to anyone. I don't care much for their Aqua Lite suit but only because the diving up here in the Pacific Northwest is pretty hard core. A lot of Oyster beds and such that can tear up thinner suits. The Aqua Pro has held up very well for me.

Thanks,
I appreciate the comment and assurance, I trust my lds but always good to get a second opinion. By the way, is that your undersuit that you are wearing in the picture? j/k
