Actually, they showed me the proto type of this suit at last dema... a year ago. They kept it hid back then - they didn't want to let the cat out of the bag before production was starting.
The entire suit feels and looks kinda' like the rubberized chest plate you see on some wetsuits. It doesn't snag on velcro at all - and seems like it's going to be pretty neat... I haven't tried any on yet - they didn't have any prototypes in my size - but full production is ramping up, and I've got several hundred on order. Full size runs of the ones there bringing out first which will be the 3 mil suits - full and shorty.
The heavier suits, 5 and 7 mils will follow.
On a whole other note - I couldn't stay for the BBQ, but it was great running into Netdoc and his group while walking the show. I also ran into a few others at the show from the board - and again - nice putting a face to the names. Hope everyone who went had a good and productive time.
I didn't see much new, ordered some new masks with built in magnifiers, Aeris has a real nice travel BC that's shipping in a few weeks, and Amphibious outfitters has some more neat shirts, and now pants, shorts, etc... but aside from that, it looked like everything was pretty much same ole' thing... But still was a worthwhile trip.
