Hello,

i have a Bare CD4 drysuit with neoprene neckseal and occasionally the suit leaks at the neck seal :shakehead:

I have sent the suit to someone who can tighten the seal as it was a little too big, but he says it is not incredibly loose as it is now.

Am i wearing the seal the wrong way? How much of the seal do you upend? i maybe upend 5 cm/2" or so. Is this too much?

Of course i know, i should not move my head too much, but on some easy, calm dives i just feel the water running down my chest at some point...

Thanks

Chris
 
Hi Chris -

I had my neoprene seals changed to latex and now I truly own a dry suit .... with neoprene it was a damp suit!
