Hey guys and gals! Long time no see, but I have a scenario in my TV =
series the depicts some ice diving with covert operatives.=20
 I would like to create the scene as realistically as possible for the =
camera. We will not see the tenders or the holes, but I am more =
concerned about the gear requirements and the configuration. Such as, =
dry suit types, tanks, tethering, harness, gloves, etc. I noticed that =
the mask strap is worn outside the hood probably to prevent leakage. I =
may have to go without the yellow/orange harness since these are covert =
agents that "do not want to be seen" under the ice's surface. Did I also =
mention that they are shooting a MP5 at their target thru the ice? I =
know, it is Hollywood, but I have to do my best.
 If any of you have any special trainign in cold weather survival gear =
for those on the surface I would appreciate you input into that also. =
Their targets are trekking thru the tundra in Siberia if that helps at =
all.
Appreciate any responses!
