When neoprene is just not enough!

Anybody else find the sub title to this forum section a little funny?

Dry Suits - When neoprene is just not enough!

Hmm, my dry suit is made of neoprene. Of course it is crushed neoprene and it has spiffy latex seals. So maybe that is the difference.

Maybe it should be

Dry Suits - When you just don't want to get wet!

I guess Larry could have called it "When rubber isn't enough," but that might lead to another women's section.

Not even crushed ...

I also dive in a neoprene dry suit with latex seals, and it's not even crushed neoprene - after trying trilaminate, I realized I liked neoprene much better .... so I hope people do not think "neoprene" and "dry suit" can not be together in one sentence

I like not having to worry about if i will be warm enough....if im not i add more layers.....with a neoprene DS....it ges to be too thick and cumbersome...not with my trilam.

I like that except in my dry suit I can sink it with me in it with ONLY 12 lbs of lead.
