I had a conversation with a long term hardened stroke over the weekend =
and he told me that his non-crushed neoprene dry suit does not change =
its buoyancy characteristics as he goes deeper because the helium that =
he uses to inflate it penetrates the neoprene and stops it from =
crushing.

Sounds like one of the best stroke stories I have ever heard, or am I =
completely missing something ?

Regards,

Simon Murray
