Speaking as a Northern Wisconsin diver (as opposed to a Keys diver).  I've
been diving a DUI TLS and have been very happy with it.  Along with the
basics (i.e. keeping you dry, location of valve placement) it is easy to
get in and out of (can be done without assistance) and the front of the
suit lays down and does not interfere with buckles, etc. (Diverite
harness/backplate/wings)  I had used a Typhoon before and the over ample
fold down area in front made my harness and weight belts almost unreachable
and uncomfortable.  Also, the rockboot option is nice if you do any shore
entry diving.  

If you have the option, dive several before you buy.  It doesn't take long
to find if something is going to be a nuisance.

Regards,

Don Dixon
