My new Drysuit!

[tstormdiver]

Hey all, I just got me a new & custom cut drysuit. I have some 600gm undergarments, so hopefully I won't be able to complain about being cold now (but then, sometimes I just like to complain). Check it out! Hopefully I'll get to dive it at the end of the month.

My, my ... a custom cut DUI. Did you win the lottery?

600g undies! Are you planning a trip to the arctic and haven't told us?!

Looks great..

I believe that 600g isn't thinsulate material, but two layers of 300g fleece.

Could be. The undergarment is made by Pinnacle.

No, I didn't win the lottery, but I did sell my old suit to help cover the costs. As for the thickness of the undies, well... hopefully I won't be able to complain about being cold any more. I'm tired of freezing my tail feathers off.

Batteries??? What batteries??? Nobody told me about any stinkin' batteries. It's just a neon Yellow. I just waned a suit in which, when helping with classes in those lovely murky quarries, the students can find me easily, if they need me.

Ahhh. Must be the Merino Evolution with 100g Thinsulate, 250g fleece and 300g Merino wool. That's actually 650g. I have several buddies who wear this undergarment. Nice looking suit.

 

[tstormdiver]

Yep, That's the one.

Oh~~ I see. DUI is also selling 500g one as I recall. It is basically two layers or 300g and 200g.
So, my guess starts from that point.

I prefer a fleece to thinsulate because a thinsulate is heavy and bulky to me.
