I've got to say, one of the best suits I've used for a while is the NDiver CNX I borrowed from a friend, closely followed by the 7mm neoprene NDiver suit I'm using at the moment. The CNX was virtually indestructible, I gave it about as much abuse as a suit can take, and it's now in the hands of a mate of mine who's very happy with it. I can only reccomend the suit. All the advantages of neoprene and all the advantages of membrane. What more could you want?
I see people ferreting around inside wrecks and holes in these thin membrane suits, and I just wouldn't do it. The neoprene suits are built to last, and will take more than a little bit of sharp wreckage to do them in. If it's just for open water, then OK, they're fine, but they don't stand up to the treatment my gear gets. I've had punctures, seams going, all sorts. And it's very hard to put a neoprene neck seal on a membrane suit. |
