vis last weekend off of ocean ave were about 10-15 ft. hoping for a little better this saturday. that and more than one dive this time. last dive got cut short due to a lost weight pouch at 25ft on my buddy's part......

And the slightly warmer water gods. I actually got cold in my wetsuit two weeks ago, which is a first for me. It's amazing how much colder 50 is than 55.

I'm really going to be missing the 62 degree water and 60' vis. I had in socal last weekend.

Isn't that the truth...drysuit class in 2 weeks!!

Got a 44 in Point Lobos last saturday. Drysuit was definitely the good choice for diving these last weeks.

I ebay'd a drysuit after my freezing dives - supposed to be coming in today. Even if it fits, it's going to be awhile before I get to use it. Still need to figure out what sort of undies I need (and how to use the thing without killing myself).

Don't risk your life, send it to me, I'm 5' 10" and about 180 lbs, it'll fit...right?

Maybe after a few cycles through the washer on hot and about 1000 grams of thinsulate. It's an XXLT. Incidentally, it's supposedly a Zeagle 7mm neoprene suit, which I can't seem to find anywhere else (I'm assuming they stopped making them). Anyone ever heard of such a suit? It looks like all their current suits are shells.
