Hello all!
I just recently got a drysuit since I’ll be diving as a job this summer and I also want to get into tec diving. My drysuit just arrived yesterday (I got a seaskin nova) and I have a few minor issues I want to see if I can fix.
Issue 1: I ordered lined dry gloves and they fit fine but when I attached them to the dry glove system, it became apparent that they are way too long in the wrist section. There was a latex seal glued to the glove and the lining goes right to the edge of the lining. Would I have to cut some of the lining out and attach the cuff to the actual glove?
Issue 2: I didn’t realize that a double zipper for the front zip isn’t standard on their product so my suit only has one zipper. I’m not sure how big of an issue this would be but all the other drysuit i have seen have a double zipper. How hard would it be for me to attach one myself or is it likely a shop would be able to do that for me?
I don’t believe I have time to send it back so that seaskin can fix it but if that’s my best option is can probably find time.
Thanks!!
