I use dryer sheets in mine. Soaks up the smell like quick, and leave a fresh scent too

I pop one in each leg and hang it up.

I put a little sink the stink or baking soda in my dunk water. In So Cal, the water may be in the 50's while the air temp is in the 80's... makes for quite a schvitz on the SI.

I usually rinse both inside and outside of the suit (read: dunk with the zipper open) and dry it inside-out on my Drysuit dryer.

No lingering stinkage here.

Drop the Chalupa.

And cut out the green chili burritos just before diving, too.




Nah, seriously though,

A drysuit dryer might work well. They're easy to make and they'll solve your problem (after you dunk it in Sink the Stink and leave it there overnight.)
