Fusion impressions - 20 dives later

[Safety Stop]

I want to know if Whites, with all the complain about super heros graphic, will add an option to have a fusion tec outer skin without graphics?

 

[DiveJedi]

I don't know that there have been lots of "complaints" - but none-the-less, I may know something about a limited edition skin with very basic graphics that is not yet released....coming VERY soon....

Stay posted to the board....a release will be made soon.

Until the next dive,
Tyler

Question : I know the skin is attached to the bladder by velcro so, underwater, is there any water circulation between the bladder and the skin?

 

[dry is why]

I purchased a fusion with tech skin in late February and was told the tech skin was on back order and would be delivered within a month. I was now told this week that it wouldn't be here until June.

Any one know if there is a cost difference to add the color accents to a skin? I wanted to talk to my dealer to add a color accent since I understand they will be coming out in June.

Not much. You may get some flow through the lycra panels, but it is pretty minimal and I get very little in the way of sand, etc between the two.

Dry Is Why......

If you want the colors instead you can do that...no price difference - just let your dealer know.

You may also want to consider a Limited Edition tech skin.....I have not done a formal press release as I don't have all sizes available yet - But I assume because of the "B/O" it is likely an L/XL....However there is an additional cost to it...

I'll post something soon - with a few pictures from a dive we did on the w/e...

More info coming soon.....

Until the next dive,

I'll second that, there's not much flow in the panels. To be honest sometimes I do notice water coming out of the suit when I get out of the water, but it's nowhere near as noticeable as water coming out of my 3/2mm wetsuit. Apart from that, the skin is pretty tight around you, so it's not really loose enough for water to get in and flow around. (I.e. the skin is not baggy)
