    Looks nice. I've forwarded it to a buddy who is looking for a line to
carry.
    Now my question. Did Lamar really have anything to do with that "tech"
drysuit from Mobbys? I've seen one and was somewhat underwhelmed. The
neoprene (strike 1) seems way too soft, and they make up for it by slapping
a bunch of patches all over the thing (strike 2), not too mentioned being
overpriced (strike 3).
     Gimme a well fitted Viking, Gates or DUI ( tho my "Free" Polar Bears is
changing my mind) anyday.

    As an aside- has anyone used one of those "Speleo" drysuits from
SwissSub?
Interesting design, but the Price! =:-0

Dive Safe
