Right dudes, so whats the lowdown on these babies?

1. Where is best to buy?
2. What type? Pyro drysuits?
3. What model is best? Classic or Pro??
4. Which is warmest & most flexible?

I think the Bok is gonna freeze his gonaaaads off when he gets back to uk

Leo, best place to buy is from me!!As Ive just started stocking these, and Ill hook you up. ( could I be any more blatant)?? Chris and I have bought the "Lite", and its sweet, Im sure the classic and pro have theyre bonuses being more expensive, but the lite is more flexible than a wet suit and keeps you totally dry. Im just wearing a pair of long johns and a hoody under mine and its sweet. No more need to take a towel to the beach. Take a look at www.twistandturn.com, they seem to have more info than the actual Ocean rodeo web site. The real bonus of the pro is that it has front zip, but lets face it theres always some one around to do you up, or you can use your handle pass leash.


Hope SA is treating you well. Hows the sonic going?

Shemhave you got any wicking thermal underwear? found that i was sweating a bit new years day and was a bit smelly when i got out of my suit, mind you it was a great day and we did work hard!!!
Leo when are you back?

shem, here's a link to the drysuit manual off their website - might have some useful info on it for folks considering buying one?

i have to say i'm not completely comvinced yet. wore my dry suit for the first time at borth the weekend. my back was wet/very damp, although was also still toasty. gonna speak to supplier soon.

No complaints from me. Lovely warm and dry, and I took a rinsing from a few waves. Only prob now is that Im cold driving home just wearing my normal clothes!!

shem are you in tomorrow am so i can pick up my lovely dry suit. if the wind plays ball i may get in over your side before i start work at 12:30

Hey Neil - i'm back in uk on 12 Jan. So if the wind is playing ball & it ain't too cold, then i'll be down 14/15 Jan weekend.

Hopefully see da massief then!!!

Ye, Im in chris, hope fully this Se will kick in, ill be keen to get in estuary or lagoon.

It picked up nicely in the estuary for a while this afternoon.... around 16 knots Easterly, but dropped off again pretty quickly.
