     As a matter of precaution, I always stow kit that has zips with 
     the zip lubricated and positioned HALF way along its length.  So 
     if it does decide to jam there is room for manoeuvre so as to 
     speak!

When all you big kindergarten boys are through boasting about the length of your
hose, or whatever ;-),  could anyone PLEASE answer the questions posed? 
     
For question No.1, I wouldn't have a clue. If I ever have a need for one, I 
would go for the Halcyon solution, since I haven't been disappointed by their 
products yet. 
     
As for question no.2 , I follow the advise given by the manufacturer and hang my
suit upside down with the zipper open to dry. Once dry, I put some talcum powder
on every latex seal (inside and out), put some parrafine wax on the zipper, roll
up the suit , close the zipper and put it in its bag in a cool, dry place.
