Just wanted to know if anyone else has noticed differences in suit squeeze between different suit materials. I've noticed that suit squeeze in crushed neoprene is not nearly as noticable as it is in a thicker trilam - its actually quite tolerable at even 40 feet if you empty all the air out of the suit - i could never have done that with the trilam. I'd think thick rubber being stiffer would even be more painful. Anyone else noticed this?
