Re: Greetings all...a curiousboarder here : )

Thanks a mill for the info folks…

I went to my local dive shop to buy a suit (wanted to keep cash
local) , I tried on the 2 piece and thank goodness I did…I would have
ordered a XL from stats…But Lrg is the ticket.

After trying on the suit we started talking price…I just about died…
They wanted $ 120. more for the same wetsuit I can get online : ( So
much for keeping the local economy going.

Marshall : Those fins have to be some of the coolest looking fins I
have seen…But for the price I think I could have a doctor put webbing
between my toes : )

Kev: I ordered the Pro-Tec helmet and the Churchill fins from Rescue
Source…
She called me tonight and said that the fins were unavailable and she
had solid black ones instead and the helmet was out of stock ..but
last years was identical except for sizing(I thought the color of
fins might make them easier to see and haven't researched last yrs
model of helmet yet)

Shane: I will check out those Custom X fins tonight : ) Thanks a ton
for bringing the PFD design to light.

Demo Day : ( Don't know when I will be able to make it up Kev…I am
heading out west for a week…then back in town for a week…then off on
a big boat ride in the Caribbean …

Oh yeah thanks for the heads up on the fin tethers!


Peace,

Ken Taylor

Ken, Depending on the ambient temp and the temp of the water, it might be best to get a two piece. That way, if it is cold you can wear both but if it is warm ...
