List,

I am evaluating drysuits and, never having owned one, am seeking info from 
those with more experience on the subject.  Thus far the field has been 
narrowed to the Gates Pro-Am 1050 and the DUI TLS350 or CLX 450.

In the cave/wreck environment how does the durability of a vulcanized 
rubber suit (ie. Viking or Gates Pro Am) compare to that of a trilaminate 
with the nylon outer layer (ie. DUI TLS350)?

Would the easier patching of the rubber suit be an advantage?

Anyone have experience with the new CLX 450?

What about the insulation value and durability of  DUI rockboot system on 
the 350 & 450?

Any good advice or sharing of experiences good, bad, or otherwise on these 
models is welcome.

Thanks,
Mike
