My weezle undersuit has become a little tight so I`m looking to change it. What would you recommend, where from and would alternatives require more lead to be worn

<font color='#0000FF'>I've got a Body-Glove Thinsulate, dunno about any C4 malarkey, it's fine but unlike some macho 'septics' I wear layers under mine &nbsp; &nbsp;
Dunno how it compares to a Weezle as I've never tried one
Sorry, not much help methinks

Well I'd hate to disapoint anyone so I'm here to recommend C4 Thinsulate  

Actually it's called DUI G400 now but it's the same stuff.

Now I have a Weezle extreme and I find it doesn't work for me. I don't dive with enough gas in the suit to give it enough loft (and yes I can reach my valves before anyone says 'shrink wrapped chicken') so I get cold.

With the G400 I don't get cold. It's really, really warm and I like it.

YMMV etc, etc

Rob.

PS Anyone want to buy a Weezle?

Otter (Divers Warehouse) do their own undersuits - got an Arctic 200 and its as warm as toast (around £75 if I remember rightly). Or get a neoprene drysuit and dive in the nuddy!

I have been getting some really good feedback on the Oceanic Uggi. &nbsp;E-mail me if you want some specifications sending.

Keep warm, keep cool and dive safely

yep - O'three neo and Matalan's finest jogging in winter £15ish

You can do the same under membrane too. None too cool though and a leak is seriously soggy

I also have one of those - I now use it during the summer as I found it wasn't warm enough (for me anyway) in the depths of winter. Nicely made suit (if a little more expensive than other options).

TOP TIP though - NEVER wash your undersuit (especially in the washing machine) - it knackers them!
