I'm new too
Hiya everyone,

I'm new too. I've just got back from Egypt having done PADI advanced OW, and remembered how much I love being under the surface. Am dying to meet some more divers, and get back in the water. Hope to meet some of you soon - sounds like you go all over. What kind of suit am I going to need to dive in this country? Obviously, Egypt was like getting into a bath - and I don't want to get pneumonia when I get in over here, ha ha.

Drysuit or asylum
Like you did my first training in Egypt but am now building up my uk experience.

First thing I got when I was thinking about it was a nice warm dry suit. Never going without it unless water's around the high 20s!!!

Have fun on the forum, great place for advice and no such thing as a dumb question!

See ya soon.

Si

Welcome aboard YD!

UK diving means a dry-suit.

Hi - if you want a dry suit I have one for sale. Neoprene, dived in it 4 times, PM me for more details if you wish. Dive safely.

Hello wise fish,

By now you will have gathered you need a dry suit for comfort in the uk, Its not as bad as you might expect, diving here is different, but that can be good and we all like diving for different reasons. Some wouldn't even get in the water unless there was a wreck where as others want unlimited vis and lots of fish, but too much of anything gets a bit boring, so enjoy the uk, we have it all.

James
