How to fix a wetsuit??

[ScubaGir1]

My sister had a completely psychotic roommate who bashed in her car windshield, took scissors to my sister's coats, pee'd in an apple juice contain to try and get my sister to drink it, AND cut some holes in her wetsuit (Right in the crotch area). She did other things too, but I don't want to write a novel lol.

So... what are some remedies to fix it, if it can be fixed? Luckily they are mostly straight and not jagged. I can't believe that woman did that to my sister. My sister moved out of that situation months ago, but just decided she want to go scuba diving, and well....she found one last surprise from that crazy *****.

Any suggestions?? Thanks!

Maybe stitching it using loose over cast stitch, then rubber cement or the seam seal that you use on tents to seal it. Depends on how cold the water is and how damaged the suit is. I figure it's useless as it is so no foul, no harm....

Get a wetsuit cement and it should be fixable.

Take the roomate to small claims court and get a new wetsuit.

WOW I do not have any suggestions on the wetsuit but I sure hope your sister has her gear checked out good as to make sure she didn't mess with any of the other gear.

I've put cuts back together with Aqua Seal and had it hold for years.

A tube by itself is about 7 bucks... but you get it in one of those gear kits we have for pretty cheap if you need a bunch of other solutions as well.

a little off topic but since you're in here Larry, did that new dacor nitrox computer come in yet?

Actually not off topic at all. Turns out that some psycho ran into Dacor and slashed all the orders, and peed in their computers.

The new ones will be next week according to them.

Thanks for the replies everyone, I'll tell my sister her options.
I really wish she would have taken that girl to court, but she just wanted to get away from her as fast as she could, and then never looked back.

And this is why I'm so weary on having roommates....I hear stories all the time that don't end pretty....
