Hello.

I am looking for a paradox in dry gloves:

Wet gloves are inadequate here on long dives (for my wussy self, anyway)

Dry gloves with wrist seals must be flooded below 180fsw due to the
squeezing, and are thus too cold for deep long dives (100+ mins)

Dry gloves that attach to the suit will flood the suit if the glove fails,
(another failure point)

So, I am looking for something that "can" equalize, but will not flood the
suit on a failure.

Any ideas?  

I think I may be running more of a risk due to cold hands and body with wet
gloves or flooded wrist seal dry gloves than I would be just using attached
gloves.
