Thanks

I have a Mares 3mm shortie wetsuit which is great, although it doesn't actually fit me anymore.

I have been using a Scubapro full 5mm for a while now which I have found to be comfortable and nice and warm most of the time.

This year I bought a 3mm full 'Waterproof' suit from the dive show. It will be having it's first try out in September in the red sea. However, when I tried the suit on at the show (after a recommendation from a fellow friend and YD'er) I couldn't believe the feel and fit of it. It is sooooooo comfortable! It has 'pre-formed' arms and legs and is a women specific fit.

So it might be worth seeing if you could try one of these. They aren't the cheapest but if it's comfort you are after then they are great....

Cheers

Kathy

One that works in reverse is called a horse bandage, Fiona...

I use a Cressi Summer 3mm. Again, lady-cut and very comfy. Denney Diving used to do them, dunno if they still do.
