DRYSUIT DIVING

DRYSUIT DIVING FOR EVERYONE

Drysuit diving is becoming more and more common, and drysuits are being used in increasingly diverse environments. Gone are the days when drysuit diving was only for the hardcore enthusiast wanting to brave icy waters. Today, good drysuits offer advanced base layer designs and increased buoyancy control, making them suitable for temperate and even tropical waters.

Did you ever call a great dive, not because you were bored or time was running out,but just because you felt too cold? We all hate to be beaten by the cold, but in most of the world, cold weather means cold water—and that's the end of the fun. The arrival of cooler weather signals that it's time to hang up the dive gear. But it doesn't have to be that way.
