OHIO DIVERS
Contributor
I been diving a drysuit over a year that is way to big, but it keeps me dry.
Over the last few months i been spending alot time on line and go to dive shops doing my research on drysuits.
My diving profile---3 1/2 years diving, 1 year of diving dry----i live in northwest ohio, so i will dive quarries, the wrecks of the great lakes and ice diving.
The bigest reason i want a new suit is fit,fit,fiit and durability.
I have it down to four suits
dui--clx 450---pros--durability, good fit (select xl-tall)--cons-not sure about rocks boots
waterproof--d7 pro iss--pros--this suit has two pockets and attached boots----cons--new market, are to find---poor sizing charts
viking----vts--pros great looking suit, cordura/buty/polyester, 450 g/m--cons---i would have to order this suit without never seeing one of them.
Bare's--trilam hd tech--pros---durability, should be a good fit--cons--i have received feedback, that some divers have a hard time getting their feet in and out of the bare's attached boots---factory installed pockets pulls away from the suit (poor bonding).
I'm ready to put down my cash---just looking for some more feedback.
