What is your experience with Apollo bio seals for dry suits?
Hi there,
I have been wondering what is your experience with Apollo bio seals when worn with latex seals (DUI dry suit). I started to use mine using all precautions and having been warned that latex deteriorates sooner when using bio seals. I had only worn them a dozen times but my latex seals started to stretch and , as a result, the leakage was very substantial and last dive had to be cancelled because my neck seal snapped torn. I do not know why it did happen because my nails are absolutely minimal, I wear seals as recommended and take good care. Why latex has stretched so much? What other ways to protect neck from grazing by latex so not to use bio seals? I will be grateful for any recommendations.
