Title: Re: under garments Post by: JD on March 03, 2011, 04:51:26 PM I thought Weezle was the go these days. I bought one off the net http://www.drysuits.co.uk/Undersuits.htm and it was too bloody hot. Found out it is what GP and AB used in Pearse. I think I had the arctic. It came with booties that matched!
I use a Dive Rite 400 now, very nice. JD Title: Re: under garments Post by: ph on March 04, 2011, 08:44:43 AM I thought Weezle was the go these days.

Title: Re: under garments Post by: JD on March 04, 2011, 09:15:56 AM Sorry, that sort of reads wrong. According to those in the know, Weezle is now the go. I however bought an Otter a while back. Too hot for me, I was sweating in the bloody thing! Nice suit though, maybe one of the lesser versions would be better?
JD PS: The other thing was I had to add 2kg. I had trouble venting it, I found it was ver warm due to the fact it trapped gas, but it was hard ot get the gas out of, hence the weight. Title: Re: under garments Post by: ph on March 04, 2011, 10:26:07 AM yeah for a while the weezle was the so caled ducks nuts, but I believe many have headed to the Santi, Grant pearce is bringing them in.
only to replies so far I guess most mustnt use an undergarment ;D, no Taylor uses some sort of female product Title: Re: under garments Post by: onwardsupwards on March 04, 2011, 10:52:04 AM I use Diving Concepts Thinsulate, 200? I think. Bit cold for longer dives. Will let you know about the Santi 400 when mine arrives.
Cheers Title: Re: under garments Post by: ph on March 04, 2011, 11:32:43 AM I use Diving Concepts Thinsulate, 200? I think. Bit cold for longer dives.

Title: Re: under garments Post by: onwardsupwards on March 04, 2011, 01:14:05 PM I think the 200 is a very popular Santi suit. Obviously you can also wear thinner thermal layers underneath as required.
They also make a warmer vest http://www.santiusa.com/santi/index.php?page=shop.product_details&category_id=4&product_id=7%3D0&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=68 (http://www.santiusa.com/santi/index.php?page=shop.product_details&category_id=4&product_id=7%3D0&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=68) which some are using in conjunction with the 200 undergarment for colder dives.

Cheers damian Grigg cave me an Otter arctic 200 to take home and try on, to small and the legs shitted me as the inner was too loose, will talk to him about geting me a Santi in Title: Re: under garments Post by: ph on June 03, 2011, 07:59:46 PM ended up getting the arctic 200 in a larger size, got over the leg issue I was having.... $160!!! and very comfy.
just had my older Aquion suit repaired by him (for Brody), new zip, new wrist and neck seals, repaired quite a few leaks on the stiching...wont say the price on here, but the cost, service and the quality was excellent....do not get your suits repaired anywhere else!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
