I don't think you can go wrong with an Otter, I was up there the other week and Gavin was picking up his new one, he had bought one of the Brittanic ones (I think) had a telescopic body, looked very nice. http://www.drysuits.co.uk/britanic.html

I also like mine but it's only a Flexi Skin probably quite a bit cheaper than Gav's.

And they are only up the road, OK a long road

I have a Otter suit, skin version, a nice suit, fits very well. Can't yet reach the valves to isolate. More yoga needed!!!!!!!!!!

Scubachick has a Brittanic, very warm, telescopic body etc. Kathy finds that there is too much around her waist and gathers it in with the belts. But then we both bought off the peg. Perhaps we should have gone a little more............

Never bloody ending this so called hobby.................

Work to dive....and so on.....................

To dive or not to dive - that's not even an option.

All that Baileys must have rotted your judgment!

25 dives and just about got to grips with my Brittanic after 7 years with a ND CNX.

Just changed mine from a Bodyglove Isotherm to a new Othree made to measure....boy can I tell the difference..

Othree has slightly less give, but I am well impressed still got that new smell...obviously I need to use it more. Build quality is superb, I know i've made a good choice.

Lovin' it

What about Gravity Zero CNX Ranger..?
Hi,

The Gravity Zero CNX Ranger is 2mm hyper compressed neoprene with non metallic front entry zip, soft socks with hard sole seperate boots that go over the top...

Very flexible and comfortable... happy to let you have a try of one if of interest.... drop me a line for more details...was a dyed in the wool O'three fan, I still have my Ri2/100 MTM but the GZ knocks spots off it... seriously!

Cheers,

andy

Good choice James.

l received my MTM Britannic just before Easter and when l tried it on in my LDS l wasn't that happy but the guy in the shop assured me that it would become easier to get on and off.

So after trying it for 25 dives l decided to take it back direct to Otter.

l took it in today and the boss John decided to make me another suit because this one wasn't quite right, so at the moment l'm very impressed with Otters aftersales.

Make sure you read the 'Howard's Guide', to getting the thing on and off when you get it back!! (Someone has just pointed out it's actually the 'Idiot's Guide' but I assured them I know what I'm talking about)!!
