Ricky Wreck
New
So my Uncle was kind enough to gift me a used trilam drysuit and I have a few questions. Overall it is in great shape and the seals are new and uncut. The fit i'd say is overall pretty solid, he is a bit taller than me but I'm a bit fatter so it kind of works out. I can do all the normal moves (overhead tank/shoulder blade touch), squat down to put on fins etc.
The fabric part of the sleeves rest right around my wrist, the latex part of the seal extends past it further down the wrist and a bit further up past where the fabric sleeve ends.
There is a bit of extra material in the legs (attached rubber boots), but wouldn't call it excessive.
My biggest concern is the neck seal. While it is untrimmed and in good condition, when I put on the suit it likes to roll down. I have tried burping (is that the right term, when you squat down and vent the neck collar?) it and pushing it as far down as I can get it. It will hold for a second but the second I move my head around it rolls down again.
