Kubi or Ultima twist for new drysuit.

Getting a new seaskin and torn between getting the sitech oval and then getting the new ultima twist or getting built in kubi.

Seems people love both and having a tough time deciding.

Get pull over gloves and don't use a ring system. More reliable and less trouble. I've tried most of the ring systems and they all have their issues and quirks. You can always add a modular ring like the Ultima later if you want to.

Kubi are great. Easy to use and bullet proof. They're "bulky" according to done but I'm not reaching into things anywhere near the diameter of my arm. No issues in over 100 dives with mine.

I’ve not seen the ultimate twist but I know Rolock which remains my choice, so ovals.

Sitech ovals with Rolock 90 is the option to get.

Do pullover gloves work well on top of QCS ovals?

Did you make a tool to help with the pull over gloves? Or do you just manhandle them on? Ive tried doing that on my Santi Suit with Marigold gloves ... was definitely a two person job. Ive seen elsewhere that people have created a tool to roll them on easier, but i havnt figured out how.

Depends on size. Most people tape over

I've used so many dry glove systems. The only two that kept me dry are the Rolock 90 and Ultima Twist. I've used the Ultima Twist for the past few hundred dives without a leak. The Rolock 90s became a little hard to turn into the lock and unlock positions, but they always remained dry.
