Compressed neoprene suit what thermals?
Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone would be able to point me in the right direction on this one.

I have a compressed neoproene suit and am currently wearing a two peice thermal layer under it.

I find this more than adequate for UK waters, however tend to find that I always end up with a cold back and stomach because I can't get the thermals to stay in place, and the roll up so leaving my mid riff exposed.

I would like a set of thermals that are similar to the all in one jobbies that the tri-laminate lot use but obviously not as thick as the neoprene keeps the majority of the cold out. Also if possible they would wick the sweat I generate away from my skin.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks

I tested my outer edge suit out this weekend using the inner core.

Can not fault it one bit. Didn't feel the cold once.

Cheap as chips as well

PPB salopets sound ideal.

Personaly id just use a 200gram Santi Thinsulate.

I use this under my 03 Lycra neo suit.

I find the inner core suit great down to about 9 degrees, then I switch to my Xerotherm Arctics
Works well for me!

Tuck your top into your bottoms, looks very numpty but stops the top rolling up I have the Xerotherm and pull the pants up over the belly, and stops any cold spots, PPB is also a good option

Tried to pull my pants over my top but it doesn't quite work. I have also tried gaffer tape, but it wasn't really practical.

Eating to many pies is the problem. I should sack the missus for "shrinking" the washing
