I bought my dry suit over a year ago. I have an Aqualung Fusion Sport. The delay in training was Tige and I could not come up with a weekend to do the training. One of us was either teaching or could not get two days together to make it happen. So we decided on April 1 and 2. No other students had signed up for classes, the quarry opens for the season that weekend and the water temp was in the mid-40s. Not great for an Open Water Class but great for Dry Suit.
We started out Saturday in the pool covering the basics. I took my full face mask knowing it would be cold in the open water. A fun class to take. Completly changes your buoyancy, have to lean and work out a new set of skills.
As luck would have it we remember to bring the camera into the pool. At the quarry, we forgot them in the gear bag so no photos from Open Water. It was fun, undergarments are the key, dress for the environment you are going in to. The deeper you go the suit changes it characteristics add a little air to the suit, move it around, life is good in cold water. Buoyancy is going to take several dives to work out the correct amount of weight than to manage the necessary amount of air in the suit. Just a reason to dive more!!!
