so the TLS350 that I bought (quoted as a stock L, fits well to 6'1 210) arrived today. Did I mention it was a hell of a deal. Includes 2 sets of DUI undergarments, fleece and thinsulate; 7mm hood and gloves. Hell of a deal, and is my 1st drysuit. I'm 6' 180 ish and thought it may be just a little big but would give me flexability.
Turns out it's really an XL. By pulling it out of the box and looking at it I thought it was HUGE. I tried it on, and actually was happy to see that it's not a swimming pool.
Undergarments fit well, but the suit is definitely big. From the dread of getting an amazing deal but then not fitting into the suit , to thinking it's not a lost cause , I'm now thinking about the issues of diving with an oversized suit.
I've been told by everyone that the fit of a drysuit is crucial. I'm planning to hit a pool tomorrow eve to test the seals, and I'll maybe need to post some pics of me in it, but am wanting to get your thoughts and feedback. What are the immediate disadvantages of it being a bit too big?
