Love my new dry gloves

[AUTiger]

I installed and used my new OS dry gloves yesterday and loved them. I had to mount the rings myself which was a bit tricky. I punctured one of my wrist zip seals. I recommend making sure that your fingernails are well trimmed since there may be some rough handling going on. I configured it to leave a wrist seal even with the gloves. I was concerned about how much dexterity I would have but it worked out fine. I might have been overly challenged if I had a camera housing with small close set buttons, but my Ikelite D80 was fine. I was the only one without pruney fingers at the end of the day. They gloves were easy to don and doff but didn't leak a drop.

Just switched out my orange gloves for the thicker ( and less rip prone) blue Atlas gloves...and I can already tell my dexterity is going south with these blue ones. But no leaks so far!

I saw a man doing his drysuit confined water last Sat. When he was undressing, all his underclothings were SOAKED!!!!

I'll bet it came from his wrist seals or his shoulder valve....

I love my XS Scuba "Dry 5" Gloves. They are 5mm Crushed- Neoprene but completely dry inside. Much more comfortable than the standard blue latex gloves and you don't need to install anything. They also make a 3mm version for more temperate diving.
