Hello.
Need advice on whether or not any layering of a 3 mm would be helpful. Scenario: diving off NC in late October to around 100 feet. I have a 3-5-3 suit and a 6mm hood and feel like for the type of diving we would normally be doing that I would be ok. My buddy has a 3mm suit and so far no hood. We both have 1.5 mm Scubapro gloves.
Option 1 - Was thinking that she may want to go with a hooded vest for some additional core protection.
Another option for her would be a regular hood but get some dive skin, .5 or 1mm. Never having used a dive skin, not sure how well it would fit under a well fitting wet suit, is there enough room under there normally to add the extra protection that way?
Our other diving would be off Key West in mid-February, off Lauderdale in March, etc.
Trying not to buy a heavier exposure suit, but work with the ones we have.
Thanks for any recommendations.
Lauren
