The Slipstreams are lighter and neutrally buoyant. They are stiffer and much harder on the legs for a standard kick, I have found they are much better for frog kicking.
This combo has been used 2 times, that is 2 dives. Both are clearly in pristine condition. Perfect for mid-atlantic and pacific diving. Ultra warm, very agile.
Suit is Extra Large Short = 185-215, 5'10" - 6'2"
Hooded Vest is XL.
The combo is $350 shipped.
