I have owned two NOKIA suits back to back and had no problems at all. I dive them exclusively in the Great Lakes. The Nokia suits I owned were made by the same company as Viking...same suit just different side of the room. The first one I bought was actually distributed by Whites in British Columbia. I had no trouble with leaks until about 300 dives and 5 years of use and some unplanned exposures to petroleum products. I have been happy with them. Mike Williams ---------- > From: Case E.
