Re: wetsuit or drysuit?
I have a Bare NextGen and I am 6'-4.5" and I come in at 260lbs.BUT REALLY I am on a diet and I will be 230. Honest.... : Mine is a XXXL I use the fleece that came with the setup and the boots. I have the scubapro split fins(twin jet) and I had a hard time getting the boots 100% into the fins, I get it about 95%. I took a rat tailed file to the boots and shaved off 1/8" from two little spots and then it fit in just fine. I got some 5mm gloves, nothing special. I actually use a wet suit hood and it works just fine. I had the wet suit hood from when I though I was hardcore and I would be fine in a wetsuit. That is where the gloves came from as well. I am in Madison, WI. diving in lake Michigan, Perl lake and only once in kegonsa(right after the ice came off the lake, no bacteria infection!!!) After I had my bare nextgen for a while, I went to the DUI days. Shop that did my dry suit training suggested going just for the fun of it. I found that they have some nice suits but I couldn't justify the extra cost. I think my NextGen is a little big around the upper arms, but not bad. If you weigh a little more then me maybe it will work better for you. I got mine a long time ago, maybe the prices have changed. HTH |
