I finally did it

I got my first drysuit in 2009. I'm on my second now.

Well on Saturday I ordered a custom cut flex extreme will all the trimming.

It was kinda an ouch handing that much cash to someone.

I know. Tell me about it.

I did the same thing a couple weeks ago but with a custom cut Yukon II. If it turns out I do a lot of cold water diving in the near future I may upgrade if I need it. But for a first dry suit I think I did okay.

I did get knee pads so the actual knees will be black.

My first was a shoulder entry TLS because as a college student living off my GI bill. Thats what I could afford. The suit dove pretty good but I was out of water for several years, when I got back in the choice was spend 600 for new seals and a a leak test and hope nothing else was wrong or buy a Yukon for 1000.

I hate how the Yukon dives, my biggest issue I believe they fixed on the 2 though.

This is actual suit color you are getting, purple?

Of course all dive gear should be purple.

Of course, as long as you are the one wearing it, not me


Congratulations!!!

It is a male cut suit, isn't it?

Yes I'm male, as for you not liking purple, I'll forgive you.

And thanks.

Big thumbs up for not going with the black theme that seems to be the fashion with divers, colours are cool!
