There is some thing to be said about equipment maintenance! If you clean your suit you will not have any problems. I had DUI zipper pockets for many years. Had no problem. On the other hand I have seen people have problems with their Velcro pockets opening. Or having trouble getting in to the pocket with dry gloves. I do agree with Max. Cheers Adam >Max, defending a zippered pocket by saying "I never had one jam"is mindless. >I've had all kinds of zippers jam. The fact is, zips have the potential to jam, velcro doesn't. Add silt and sand and water and the potential soars. >But hey, don't let reason influence you. Go right head and go with the zipper. Just remember, by so doing you're ignoring reality. And that is a stupid thing to do when it comes to choosing extreme diving gear. >rgds billyw At 12:00 28/02/01 , Max wrote: >A zippered pocket will never open on it own, never collect sand, the flap does not get pushed inside when routing deep, i cannot tell if the Velcro is closed with dry gloves, I have never had a zippered pocket jam. This is not an argument rather a preference. For what you do I guess you could make do with Velcro. I like big pockets, but med breasts it's just a preference. I think I will opp for the TLS rather than the CLx. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get email at your own domain with Yahoo!
