Subject: Custom Wetsuits?
Date: Mon, 13 Jul 1998 08:21:58 +1000
Hi all,

I have a number of questions all relating to the posibility of me purchasing
a new wetsuit.

1. Are crushed, compressed & microcell neoprene all the same thing?
2. Does this type of neoprene although thinner have similar thermal
characteristics to thicker "normal" neoprene?
3. Am I correct in assuming its bouyancy characteristics would be much
better ie less bouyancy on the surface and less compression at depth due to
the smaller bubbles?
4. Can this material be made into a wetsuit rather than just drysuits?
5. Are there any commercially available wetsuits made from this material?
6. Does anyone know of a manufacturer of custom diving wetsuits (that may be
able to do this) in the Sydney northshore area?

Thanks in advance,

Dean Murray
