i take it you are off skiing then

i do like how "the Practical pockets double as vents'' as if you need this on an undersuit

do I take it that you don't move much under water?

Several threads on subxero on here already within the last week.

Ive bought one and only done 2 dives admittedly in it so far but was adequately warm (compared to frozen to death in my weezle).

Although i do seem to need 3kg more than weezle to sink.

Tried Weezle on its own, weezle with helly hansen base, weezle with hellu hansen base and a fleece layer.

Generally if its <10c im cold after 25 mins or so no matter what i wear

(Its an Extreme not an Extreme Plus).

Although i do tend to run my suit fairly squeezed for comfort reasons.

Correct - i also wear dry gloves and hate the cold. Although that photos is in a river which was 19c. The reason for the dry gloves was mainly for potential infection reasons not cold

In the carribean im freezing after 2 x 1hr dives in a 3mm full suit.

I fly my twins on the wing and use my suit for squeeze only. It wouldn't have been possible with my old Weezle Extreme + as that relies on air in suit to loft up and hence keep you warm. So, I now swear by the RoHo's Outlast undersuit - 45 mins at 6 c in Stoney and warm!

i was in my extreme on sat/mon last week in my 2.5 o'three the water was about 6/7 had around 45min to 1h each time with 3mm gloves on and i was ok but i think gary {warmwaterdiver} was cold well it was snowing
diving free speech :: View topic - stoney in the snow

i use to dive the severn /team and lug a fair bit the water was always warm
i used to use amara gloves from Poseidon they where good you could feel for the old cod bottles in the mud without getting cut

Before dry gloves in winter my dive times were roughly 25 mins - after that i was in so much physical pain from my hands i had to abort it. Tried 5mm gloves, tried 3 finger mitts and nothing solved it. With my drygloves and a 40gsm thinsulate underglove my hands are cold after 45 mins but not painful.

Now if only the weather had allowed me to actually dive in the SEA this winter it would have been great......
