I'm going to be getting a dry suit for Christmas (makes my wife's shopping a lot easier when I specify what scuba gadget to buy where!). I've narrowed it down to the 2MM "Tech Dry", which is a freont-entry zipper versus the "Pro Dry", which is the back entry version and requires help to zip it up.
Can any of you with experience with these give me some advice? I do a fair bit of solo diving, so I'm inclined towards the "Tech Dry," but have heard that the "Pro Dry" was developed to take stress off the zipper....supposedly Bare was getting zipper wear out. Like all good scuba stories, this has a hint of "urban myth," and I'd appreciate hearing from anyone with 1st-hand experience.
