:confused: I dive 7mm all the time . . .

Turn your suit legs inside out except the last 4-6".
Making sure the front is looking at you, pull on a leg and position it (the zipper) where it should be.
Roll the suit up the leg above the knee.
Repeat with the other side.
Adjust to be sure the knee pads are in the right spots.
Keep rolling all the way up.
Can do arms the same way, but I find I can slip them on fairly easily.
 
Try some lube?...lol idk...
 
Marine life too.

:depressed:

some how I think danglies and piss poor buoyancy, common place in today's "divers", do significantly more harm...
 
Be careful with talc as it gets in the zips of the dry suit divers on your boat :no:

On the two occassions that I chose to take a wet suit on my tropical liveaboard instead of my dry suit, I would apply hair conditioner to my legs shoulders and the suit would slide on quite nicely :D

or, get a dry suit and you won't need any lube :shocked2:
