Impressive! I think this wetsuit will be all I need, though. My next step is to buy a Dry Suit. I think I've found a nice tri-lam suit for around $900.

I use that suit in Socal waters, dove with it in 48 degrees before. Try it, let us know what you think. Diving dry makes the surface interval much nicer.....

if you're already planning dry then why mess with a semi? I go dry for anything I'm not willing to do in a 3mm

Well, at this point, I just wanted a replacement for my old Cressi 5mm. Everyone local, bought pretty much the same wetsuit, and the LDS owner ended up making EVERYONE mad. (Long story, but none of the local divers want anything to do with this guy, anymore.) I don't wish to advertize for his shop by wearing gear that I bought from him, and besides, the Cressi 5mm has big yellow bands around the shoulders and CRESSI stenciled across the chest. Much too flashy for me. If I'm going to advertize for Cressi, they need to give me a salary. LOL I like my gear to be subdued, with the exception of my knife, fins, and light. The Sea Elite suit is black and gray.

I've got a Tilos 7/5mm Semi dry on it's way. I bought it from SCUBA.COM for $135 with shipping. I was able to get that price through their great price matching policy. I'm looking forward to getting that baby in the water for a test next weekend.

Can you explain how you did that please. Thanks

Sea Elite suits are good quality also, I have a 15 year old one that still looks good and is warm. It is hard to go wrong with Diver's Supply.
