Re:Undergarment
When I teach ice diving for Pirate's Cove it's not uncommon to spend up to 6 hours a day in the water. This means that I must be warm enough to out last all of the students without becoming too cold myself.
To stay warm I wear the following on these types of dives: - Patagonia Expedition weight Capaliene underwear - DUI C4 Thinuslate jumpsuit - DUI plus-5 fleece vest - Dry gloves and hood - Heated argon ;D We have a shelter on the ice with a propane heater inside of it. This keeps all of the student regulators nice and warm right up until the moment they jump in for their dive. If one starts to get cold we just pop it back in the tent. We also will keep the argon bottle inside the tent and run an umbilical hose off of it instead of having everyone wear their own pony bottle full of argon. This has the added advantage fo being able to pump WARM argon into your suit while under the ice. 8) The argon hose is tied into the ice diving line, so there is no extra bulk for the divers. The end of the hose has a block on it which allows for seperate drysuit hoses to come off of it and supply all memebers of the team with their own hot gas. Here's a shot of what it looks like. |
