Purchased drysuit, soliciting advice / opinions

[Elvistheking]

I've got a seaksin with neo socks,I use wetsuit boots, as they seem (to me any way) to be a good compromise between ankle mobility for frog and back finning and "sturdyness" they are also relatively cheap and means that my fins still fitted (Hollis F1's).

For undersuits I use a thin base layer, then FE Artics and/or FE Xerotherms depending on the water temps as this give me a lot of "adjustability" when it comesto how much insulation I want and dosn't restrict reaching back for shutdowns.

I just got my first drysuit, also a DUI TLS 350, and went out on the Yukon for the first dive in my new drysuit last weekend. Water temperature was 50 on the bottom and I was cold toward the end of the second dive. If I had eaten more before, I probably wouldn't have been as cold. I wore a Weezle Extreme undersuit and it was very cozy, more so than the DUI polartech I used in my drysuit class. I'm looking at a Fourth Element Xerotherm to go under my Weezle.

Based on recommendations from someone here on Scubaboard, I bought dry suit socks from seller rondel101bjrr on eBay and was very pleased with the quality and price. If you are on a budget, definitely look at his drysuit undergarments. I ordered drysuit socks for my wife, and he went out of his way to be helpful and get the right size. I will be buying more from him when the water warms up
