still got a few thing to get before i settle down for a bit:-
Fourth Element Xerotherm Arctic set
T-Rex Titanium knife
light cannon
The Xerotherm Arctic undersuit is good, I had one of them when I dived in Scottish waters.
The T-Reg knife is nice, but a bit on the expensive side if you drop it. Also I find the tip on mine needs sharpened now and again. I have mine attached to my BCD hose, I also have a cheap big knife attached to my leg, this one is for discussing with sharks on the merits of pulling a stitch in my wetsuit with their teeth.
Light Cannon??? why? Whats wrong with a Beaver Plasma or a Darkbuster 21W HID?
to be honest tomy i havent relly givin much thought on the light cannon front ive heard there good but am open to to any advice on others

Curses! Foiled Again!;)
nice spending spree sandman, i remember when i could do that! :(
just got my drysuit from otter - think they make the extreme to order.
anyways im having fun getting in and out of it with the front zip any1 know of a better way, im sure there is a nac to it :D.
santa brought me my arctic set like i asked :D which fits well so that can get ticked off the list, as can my trex knife.
so all i need now is a torch and a tank or two and im all set.

I'll try to explain my donning procedure.....
Feet first :rolleyes:
My zip goes from my left shoulder to my right hip. So my left arm goes in first, pull the suit right up over that shoulder. Now the right arm goes behind my back to feel for the arm hole. This was a bit strange at first as the hole always seems further back than you expect, but once you get the hang of it you should be OK.
Then pop your head through :rolleyes:
I've got a telescopic torso on my DUI which makes this a bit easier. I dare say without it you probably don't want to pull the suit over your shoulders untill both arms are in :confused:
But it is a bit strange the first few times. Once you get to know where the arm holes are it becomes a bit easier.
cheers scott that worked a treat.
ive been trying a few different ways of getting in and out and the way you suggested is among the best.
cheers
