Gloves: Waterproof or 4th Element

[scuba127]

How difficult is it to get the Dry 5's on and properly sealed by yourself? Thanks in advance.

I have a similar set to the Dry 5's and while it's easier with a buddy it only takes an extra min or so to set them up correctly by myself. Certainly not difficult.

I am a big advocate of 4th element products, but i Myself as the other gentlemen own a pair of XS Scuba dry 5 gloves and they are wonderful. I dive in NJ and have been in 39 deg water with them and was toasty on a 30 min dive. you can't go wrong with these gloves. Now for warmer water 4th element would be great also!!

The fourth element gloves are a little cooler, but they do have the increase in dexterity going for them when compared to the dry five. It's easier for me to work the boltsnaps with these gloves. I can image photographers would benefit as well. Another glove that does a pretty good job at keeping the hands warm is the bare gauntlet glove but the tradeoff is the extra bulk.
