I don't know about the pockets, but that suit looks like an excellent value to me. I bought my drysuit after I DM'd a couple of checkout dives in December. The most memorable part of a dive with wetsuit in 50 something degree water is when that wet cold hits you where the good lord split you. It sounded like a group of young barn owls out there..."hooo! hooo!".

I just purchased a BARE dry suit last month. I need to get a few things fixed on it (customized) but, by next month or Feb, I'll be dry.

It could be nice if someone hydrates themselves to well and prepares for it before the dive.
