I have a hooded vest that I wear inside my wetsuit (I've seen it referred to as a "chicken vest"), and I'm wondering if there's a way to modify it so that it's easier to get in/out. I practically have to dislocate my should every time I get out of it. To make things even more difficult, I have to make sure that my bikini top doesn't slip while I'm wrestling my way out, and I don't accidentally flash fellow divers! :xeye:
If I were to cut a slit down the side, would it lose it's effectiveness? Since it's inside, I'm not sure the seals on the vest actually matter, or if the warming effect is just from having the extra neoprene padding.
Or if anyone has any other ideas how to get out of it, I'm open to suggestions!!
TIA!
