"Dom, although I totally agree with your conclusion that membrane is best cf neoprene, I can't support your very tough stance on neoprenes (on your webpage)"

It's exaggerated. I was trying to get the basic point across, so I took all the concepts to extremes - best drysuit material is one of those debates that can last for HOURS if you don't hit people round the head with the differences

"as for a wet Weezle not losing its warmth, I think Dave W may have some very different views on that from this Saturday, right Dave ?"

Sadly(?), this is one I have to rely on hearsay - I've never had a flood whilst wearing my Weezle.
However, IIRC there's a couple of links on my web page that testify to wearers being warm even in the event of a full flood. That's on top of the Weezle test proceedure (They take the wearer into cold water, rip his neck seal, and see if he comes out cold)

Justin
When you pop into driverswarehouse, speak to JJ (who makes them) or Paul (the son of the owner) ask if you could borrow/hire a membrane to try, ask if you would be allowed to offset the hire against the purchase of either a Neoprene or the Membrane. They will
A consideration for a Neoprene is that if flooded it will still have some thermal properties, with a membrane you won't of course. Good luck
