Should it stay or should it go? - to Gozo

WAHOO!

Le Seaskin neuvaux et arrive! And boy, what a fine bouquet!
Its a mixture of rubber factory and cobblers all in one bottle, that I just cant wait to swill around and appreciate.

I'm gonna take it up to Amphibian Sports to get it some fins and then I'm set.

Should I take it to Gozo with me tomorrow though?

Is it membrane? If so, I would, yes. It'll be the same weight or less than a 7mm 2 piece and the water will still be chilly. And you have to show it off.

Mine still smelled of glue after diving in it yesterday, I nearly got high in the car from the fumes.

Oh Yes.

It is membrane.

And oh, the joy of a thing that fits! I can still scrape my knuckles on the floor even, with room to spare in the arms.

I'm tempted to go and lie in the duck pond in the park.

A Membrane suit in Gozo in May is just the right choice!

I wore my DUI Crushed Neoprene there in May last year, just warm enough to wear with shorts/T-Shirt underneat, so easy to get out of afterwards while my mates struggled out of their wetsuits!

UNdersuit??

And now I'm wondering wether to take the 200gsm undersuit or just some cycling tights and a fleece top.

The only fins that fit were XXL Jetfins, 7 Lbs of good old india rubber.
I'm going to be using every bit of that 35Kilos, and then some.

I'd love to be wearing my membrane drysuit, however it is fooked, so semi-dry with a LOT of layers underneat, will be suit of the day!

Don't worry, after we have submersed you a bit, and made you sweat in it trecking you up dive site and down, it won't smell at all nice - just like a drysuit should!

Oh, and the confuser told me it is 19 degrees in the shallows, however I don't believe it as it is a Suunto

I circulated my Arctics, my Weazle and old ND undersuit, depending on how wet I got - any old undersuit will do, I will be cold before you are

See you soon Oliver!!

I'm talking about the confuser Andy, when I say degrees I mean temperature, not angles and bearings
