Phi,
I know what you are talking about; I have a Viking with some hard boots;
Same problem. I tried to find someone to change the boots to something like
dui's but could not find any help. That was a couple of years ago.
The problem is the circumference difference between the top of the boot
and the bottom of the suit leg. Of course, sealing two pieces the same
diameter is relatively easy; I would use a two part mix, just like the Viking
glue for the hood and cuffs, but will that work for neoprene? there's always
aquaseal, great stuff, and it works on everything.
one day I'll buy a suit that fits tighter, right now, can't afford it, so
please let me know if you have any luck with what seams to be an easy thing
to do; but isn't!
Randy
