I have an O'Neill drysuit that I love. I bought it on the internet and it has served me well on several dives.
I noticed last weekend that the wrist cuffs (latex) are showing a little age and could stand to be replaced. I have changed wrist seals before on other suits and know I can do it. The suit has a neoprene neck seal, and it works great. very dry.
My question is: will the standard sized latex seals available online fit this suit? It will be easier and faster to change them myself than to ship the suit off for this rudimentary maintenance.
This is not an emergency, but I want to do it before I rip a cuff donning the suit and lose a dive. I dive in swim trunks, a 3 mm wetsuit, or dry. I do not keep a 7 mm wetsuit as back up. If it is that cold, I dive dry, or not at all.
Thanks,
