I prefer a drysuit. I don't have to change out of wet clothes, dry off and then put dry clothes on. It's alot easier for me |

HAHA! That's funny! If you have a good enough dry suite that doesn't leak at all, you really could do that. You would probably sweat alot in the suite though. |

it doesnt get that cold in texas during winter (50F) but if im gunna spend some $$$ to get something to keep me warm i want to get the one that will work best. i think s dry suit would b best cuz you stay mostly dry instead of all wet. and wetsuits dont really keep you warm. it just stays cold. especially when you come out _________________ Centurion Boats |

a dry suit doesn't let water through to ur skin, a wetsuit is skin-tight and soaks up water |

and then isn't a wet suit supposed to keep some water in and then your body temp warms up the water and then it keeps you warm? _________________ I <3 wakeskating |

most drysuits will leak a tiny bit, but it's not enough to worry about. A wetsuit uses your body heat to keep you warm |

Drysuits are warm BUT heavy, uncomfortable, expensive and they stink after 2-3 days...

neither one of my drysuits stink(in fact wetsuits stink cause they hold water for so long). there more comfy then a wetsuit and worth the money. If a couple of pounds on your body is an issue then you have issues. thats just like saying a heavier wakeboard is hindering your abilities, it's not, it's you. the only issue whith drysuits is mobility, and since I'm not pro, I don't need to be that mobile when it's real cold |

Paul, i think you might be doin somethin wrong becuase mine never smelled and i had it for a long time, its not like a wetsuit you dont want to pee in it to be warmer _________________ P.S.... this is what part of the alphabet would look like if Q and R were eliminated |

Alliance mag a few months ago was dissing on the wearing of a full body wetsuit under a pair of shorts- I think it's the coolest "fashion statement" to ever hit the water. _________________
