Yes.. They are superb... tough and very flexible. If you can afford one.. buy one. If Carlsberg made drysuits, they'd be Othree... Ri2/100's

Utterly fantastic suit, had one MTM, fits so well it takes litterally a 1 sec burst to take the squeeze off. Never been cold, no huge amounts of gas rooling from side to side in the suit - happy days!Just wish i got to use it more often.

I've owned a couple of O'three suits over the years, the last one being an RI2/100 which I owned up until earlier this year. Over the three years that I dived it, it proved to be an absolutely superb suit that fitted like a glove, was hard wearing and - best of all - came with one vital extra - customer service from O'three that is second to none! Trust me - you won't regret buying any O'three suit, most especially an RI!

In answer to your other query - if you're currently diving an MSF 500 then yes, you'll definately drop lead as the RI uses 2.1mm hyper compressed neoprene whereas your current suit uses 5mm neoprene. Hope all this helps...

If you're wondering, the only reason why I don't dive an O'three now is because I now want a trilaminate front entry suit which is something that O'three sadly don't offer - if they did, they'd get my money again!

I have owned an RI for some years now and the suit is great, the customer service is second to none. I am now diving in the warmer waters off the coast of South Australia and the suit is performing well.
