Cutting Welded semi-dry suit seals - Scuba Forum

mjcoyne · 07-16-2008, 07:21 PM

My girlfriend has a Waterproof Aeris wetsuit (Aeris - Waterproof) and it fits her great but the only problem is that rolling the sleeves under like you do with a semi-dry is a big problem. They are just way too long and we were thinking about cutting them.

Our LDS where we bought the suit suggests that we just cut it and at the most take a flame and try to seal up where the welded seam is so the stitching does not unravel. We thought that was a reasonable idea but we wanted to see if there were any other ideas on this topic out there since we dont want to wrecklessly cut up a wet suit that is no more than 6 months old.
Thanks!

Unless someone here actually knows the answer, I'd think twice about cutting without checking with Waterproof first. Drop them a line?

I sent an email to Waterproof and I will post what they have to say when I get a reply.
