Thanks for sharing your dive. It's already unthinkable for me to get into a swimsuit at -6° :D. Or do you put it on somewhere inside?

@@Honkomedes Hi, and thanks for watching! I actually put the wetsuit on in the shower back home, and drive in the suit. I have a seat cover so the seat won’t get wet. And drive back home and straight in a warm shower. But so long it’s not windy outside it’s quite ok to change outside even though it’s minus degrees.

with water at 4ºC,... how long can you stay in the water diving, 30 min ?? here in summer with 18ºC and 7mm swimmingsuit after 2 hours I started to feel some cold (unless there are plenty of fish that you do not realice about cold until you went out of the water),...

Hi! No problem being in the water for 1 - 1 1/2 hour. Depends of course of the suit quality and that the shape of the suit fits your body, and how active you are. In this dive we swam back and forth to an island. So was quite active. I also use a 7mm in the winter, and most of the summer unless it’s over 18 °C water temperature. 7mm socks and 7mm three finger gloves. We’re do you dive? And what’s the temperature in the water?

@@andreasveland625 Good day, we have around 13-15ºC on winter and 17-19ºC on summer. I use 7mm suit and 5mm sock and gloves (5 finger gloves, in summer sometimmes use 3mm gloves ). I live in the NW coast of Spain just over Portugal, and yes we have "cold" water in Spain also,.... its not all mediterranean waters over 25ºC, we got the Gulf Stream currents here, the same that goes to Norway
