Best Overall Drysuit-various dive environments

[jasondbaker]

I think the best type of suit material for overall MN diving is some type of tri-lam. It is lightweight, dries quickly, offers good flexibility, and priced reasonably.

If you need to spend 6 hours in the ice doing a vehicle recovery you may want to consider a neoprene drysuit for the extra insulation. Otherwise I almost never see neoprene suits anymore.

If you are doing tons of wreck diving or commercial work a crushed neoprene or cordura suit might make sense.

If you are diving in a contaminated area a rubber suit like a Viking makes sense.
