I had a mix-up at my LDS. I intended to order an Xcel semi-dry 8/7/6; what arrived was an Xcel 7/6/5 (not semi-dry). Of course, this saves me
about $150 (and I'm an impoverished graduate student). Should I save the money and count the mistake as a blessing? Or is it really worth it to add one millimeter of neoprene plus the features of a semi-dry suit (whatever that means)?
For the record, I'm a relatively new diver (OWC, then about 10 cold water dives and 10 tropical dives). This is my first non-rented exposure suit, and I intend to use it for recreational diving on the California coast (water temperature, say, 50 degrees).
