You lucky Dog Pete. You came in naked and walked out in a Deep 6 Drysuit for free. Guess it pays to be humble. LOL Great seeing you again as always. Congratulations. I would love for you to post on the 2017 NSSCDS International Cave Diving Conference Facebook page a report of how the drysuit dives.

 

[The Chairman]

Actually, the drysuit wasn't for me. I was asked by @sphyon to enter it for him and I did. His lovely wife will be enjoying that suit. Funny, but as I approached the ticket giver, a young lass approached at the same time. I motioned her in front of me, whereas she squinted and asked me if I knew something she didn't. I quipped something along the lines that I was one with everything in the 'verse. She gave me the stink eye when I actually won.

 

[shellmoundal]

Wow. Does Chris know that the suit will not be for you?

 

[Doby45]

I think you would more than likely have to hold a gun to @The Chairman head to get him in a drysuit.

If he walked in naked, everyone would have paid to get him in any kind of suit.
