The Essential Guide to SCUBA Drysuits: What You Need to Know

[@greatdivers]

Do you dive dry? What was the final straw that made you choose drysuit diving?

[@jean-louismoyen6503]

Température (air/water): donning in winter but also deep diving (allows redundancy of buoyancy)

[@TheHappy777]

@@jean-louismoyen6503 another thing I like is the fact it keeps the effects of the wind chill-factor down between consecutive dives :)

Great lesson

Don't forget the possibility to use heated undergarment, like vest gloves or whole suit! I use separated heated gloves and vest (Vest on medium and gloves on full). Also the big advantage of using a drysuit: You can put at home the undersuit, so no bare body exposure to the weather elements on the dive site!

That would have been an ideal point to include...

Hi, For a neck circumference of 40 cm, it's recommended to choose a seal that allows for approximately 1.5-2 cm of stretch for a comfortable fit. should cut it down to 37cm neck seal circumfence?

Thanks for telling me lots of stuff which is patently obvious. What is a P?T? valve? Do you wear a regular BCD with it? How do you control the amount of air on descent and surfacing? You thought it was far more important to talk about the levels of insulation in under clothing?

[@Mrveescuba]

so many points missing here!! but you did caving without dry?

Can I strap over 40lbs on a small woman in a dry suit she isn't certified on in pockets that can't be ditched? Just curious

[@paultyler4001]

So the drysuit is the BCD?
