True in warm water but not so easy in a drysuit. When tropical diving I’ll drift along inverted a lot.
Depends on your drysuit. If you're talking about a shell suit with heavy undergarments I agree totally. OTOH, if your suit is a tight-fitting neo suit like e.g. the Scubapro Everdry 4, there's no issue going vertical, feet up/head down.

True enough, neoprene drysuits are great and offer more opportunity to move freely in many directions, not quite like a rash guard or 1mm wetsuit but so much easier than a bag, just wish there were more self donning options.

Not an issue if you dive with a buddy :poke:

What I dislike most about backzips is the hassle of taking a leak. In that department, frontzips totally rule.

Seems to work the same. Open bolt, pee.

Well, if you enjoy gluing a condom to your junk, that may work. Me, I don't enjoy gluing a condom to my junk. And if I don't overdo the coffee, I usually don't have any issues holding it for an hour or so.

But I do appreciate being able to let go during the SI without a lot of hassle to avoid peeing on my suit.

The glueing part is harmless, wait until you take it off.

If you dive a shell, getting out of a feet-inflated inversion is a skill to be practiced.
