pinnacle wetsuit testing...

[offroaddiver]

last week i ordered a pinnacle 5mm merino-elastiprene from Scubatoys.com. I came today. Overall it looks like a good wetsuit. However can't test it while diving till this weekend.

It is extremely warm out of water though.

I tried it on to make sure it was a good fit. And the zipper got caught on the fabric. Had to force the zipper open enough to squeeze out of the suit. Found the problem and fixed it with some zipper lube.

Will post about performance in the water once i have something to report.

I recently bought a pinnacle 7mm elastiprene wetsuit and it has treated me excellent. Very durable, and stretchy as well, makes for an easy slip on. I have been to water temps in the low to mid 50's and have been fine, of course I do have 1.5 mm hooded vest as well. Pinnacle makes qaulity products. Hope you enjoy your wetsuit!
