Here's an easy one (I think)

Chris - you're right, I have a hard time finding an off the rack suit that fits...if it fits me in one place it doesn't fit in another! 

I just need something to get me by for now while I figure out just how serious I am going to be, though I'd like to go enough this summer to make it seem like this huge layout of cash was worth it  ;D .  A custom suit is going to be right around $400 and that is a huge stretch for me considering all the other money I am laying out right now, so the $800 is...well....a super duper stretch perhaps even an impossible one right now but I do need SOMETHING so I was planning on making due with the old 7mm for now just to "test the water" if you will.  I believe it will work for finishing up my checkout dives when the time comes for that, and this summer I think I will mostly do some smaller lakes, a lot of real local stuff.  I know, real boring to you guys but I'm just starting out here.

Thanks everyone for your takes on the suit question.  I'm glad I asked because I started out thinking both were a good idea but now I am thinking ankle only, if at all.  I still have some time to think about it but I wanted to ask some 'real' divers. 

Does anyone dive in WI in a wet suit?  Why does my lds stock so many if no one uses them?


Thanks
