After a recent trip I’ve decided to buy a wetsuit. I went on a scuba diving trip and have become obsessed with it. I completely dig the experience of being under water with the fish. I’m still a bit nervous about the sharks but that will only be overcome with experience.
I’m inclined to going a quiksilver wetsuit. They came highly recommended by the instructor and the guides on the trips I went on. Come to think of it that was the most popular wetsuit worn from what I can recall. There must be something to them.
I hear there are wetsuits containing merino wool and titanium threads. These suits are meant to help retain more body heat. I understand that wool is great at keeping you warm even when wet but I am skeptical about the validity of using titanium. I imagine they are also are also more expensive than a plain neoprene wetsuit. I truly dig the idea of the extra warmth. Not being to good with the cold every little bit helps.
So my quest starts to find cheap wetsuits at a wetsuit outlet. The trick is to determine what size is going to be the right fit. I’d hate to get one and then find out that it rubs me raw at 100 meters. Now that would be a bad thing. I guess that there is only so much you can determine prior to buying and the surest way to test is to get one and get scuba diving.
