Shopper How is this product in cold water, have all hollis gear except a dry suite, there just a little costly, so looking to purchase a semi dry but being careful about my purchase. So is this a good deal for winter diving?
RICHARD J I dove last weekend in a lake here in Arizona with water temperature of 54. I was in or under the water for about 100 minutes before i started to get cold. I ended my last dive about 15 minutes later and that was the limit for me.
Michael C Semi dry suits will keep you warmer in colder waters. Exactly what temperature waters you can use it in is more based on what the divers tolerance is. Semi dry wetsuits are good for spring, summer, and fall diving in northern areas like New York and Canada. Ice diving might be too cold for the suit, but again that is mostly up to what temperature the diver can tolerate.
