I want to publicly offer my sincere appreciation to Doug Mudry of Extreme Exposure in High Springs, FL for his "above and beyond" repair of my drysuit. I was working in Florida last week and was able to drive north each evening after work to go cave diving. On Friday afternoon I dove Cow Spring in O'Brien and unfortunately ripped my suit right along my belly as I was "laying low" through the "not-my-fault" restriction as I tried to low to not in order not to bang my backmounted tanks but, though succesful with not hitting the tanks, I unfortunately was so low that I shredded through my DUI FLX Extreme right along my belly by making contact with a rock on the ground (this particular restriction is a gravel floor). Of course the suit flooded but I also thought that would be the end of my cave diving that week though I had rescheduled my return trip back to today in order to go on two additional cave dives yesterday. I brought my suit to Doug on late Friday and he offered to repair it with a clean interior patch. To accommodate my Saturday dives, Doug returned to EE after working all day and then diving and then returned to the shop for a couple of hours to do the repair such that my suit was available for pick-up at 0800 on Saturday.
I did two 60 minute dives at Little River Springs in O'Brien, FL on Saturday as scheduled without a leak to be found. Thank-you Doug for such efforts that are truly "above and beyond".
