>Bullshit. It takes a grain of sand or a piece of shell debris to jam a zip.
You can pick that up and get a jam from it during a dive. 

Billyw, Lets be realistic here a grain of sand or a piece of shell??? DUI has
heavy-duty zippers. If you neglect cleaning it for a long time I must agree you
will encounter problems. If you can - think over the years how many different
kinds of equipment had functional zippers on them both tech or non-tech.
BC�s, boots, gloves, suits, both OMS and Dive Right have utility pockets with
zippers. Halcyon has zippers on their BC�s. Point is as long as you properly
maintain your equipment just like everything else zippers will function
properly. 

>IF Velcro deteriorates, it doesn't happen instantly. It gets slack first. And
guess what, Einstein, that's when you replace it. 

You don�t have to be Einstein to agree to that point. The day you realize
your Velcro is slacking is the day you loose peace of equipment. Years ago
Viking had Velcro closures on their pockets. Then they switched to combination
of Velcro, 1 inch webbing and plastic quick connect. Guess why they did that?
Himm!!! May be Velcro was not holding the contents of the pocket. 

>Are you saying that because you've had no problem with your zip pocket so far,
you never will and no-one else will either? 

Why don�t you read what I wrote! Instead of manipulating what you see. All I
wrote was - I had no problems with the zippers. At no point I said I would not
have problems. Not that it maters I would type it slowly for you so you can
understand easy. My point is - One could eliminate potential equipment problems
if one properly maintains their equipment. This includes all zippers on the dry
suit. 

>What, about medium breasts? 

What about it? I have trouble understanding the relation ship between medium
breasts and pockets unless you keep your medium breasts in your Velcro pockets.
And last point. Please keep your childish empty comments to your self. I
don�t know why you feel you need to insult or flame. Maybe because you have
noting to say, or maybe you have nothing between your ears. 
Cheers! 
Adam
