    What wetsuit to take to Raja Ampat in March

    Hello fellow divers I am heading out to Raja Ampat in March 2019. I am going to stay in a resort and doing 1-2 dives per day (traveling with the kids). I've seen multiple references to full suits. Is the water that cold if you are not doing a liveaboard with 3-4 dives per day? For...

    Suitable wetsuit

    Hey there, I'm looking for a 5mm wetsuit suitable for 25 degrees celsius warm water. After searching a while I found that the best option would be the Scubapro Everflex. But as this wetsuit is fairly expensive and I'm only a beginner, I've also come across the Cressi Castoro 5, wich has also...

    Wetsuit needed - Thin with ankle and wrist zippers

    I need a wetsuit which is thin, flexible and very easy to put on and especially remove due to my lumbar problems. Contortions only make it worse ;-) Tried a Lycra bodysuit with my current 2/3 but found it unsatisfactory. Learned from previous posts that shop in TX, Terrapin, can install the...

    3½mm or 5mm suit diving Komodo, Alor and the Banda Sea in September?

    End of August I am heading to Indonesia for a long diving holiday. But it is 8 years since I last dove Indonesia, so I am a little unsure what wetsuit to pack. I am usually comfy in my 3½mm until 22 degrees Celsius. Below 22 degrees Celsius I prefer my 5mm. Option A) 3½mm full wetsuit +...

    Lycra Dive Skin for Quick Wetsuit Don/Doff?

    I have a 3/2m Xcel full wetsuit. It's neoprene on the outside but has another material in the inside, which I am guessing, is the reason why getting the suit wet first to don doesn't make it easier. If anything, it makes don'ing harder. There's a lot of traction to skin. I would like to know...

    Where can I find Kids Vintage Wetsuits?

    When I was 10yrs old (I’m 14 now) I got vintage smoothskin beavertail wetsuit from my grandad as a gift because he used to be a scuba diver. It lasted me until I was 13 surprisingly, mainly because I haven’t grown so much but the beavertail was getting to tight for comfort and he suit was...

It is time to get some but one reason we have not done so yet is we do not want to get the wrong equipment. If you could share your thoughts about what equipment, by model and reasons it would...

    Hooded Vest Sizing Question

    Hey everyone! I have an issue: I recently bought a Henderson Hooded Vest (7/5) and the fit is nearly there. I am really skinny and so the XS wasn't for my height but it was just right for my hips and waist. The S was perfect for my height but a bit larger for my hips/waist. I went with the size...
