Re: Open-cell for scuba?

Swapped over from my semi commercial set up of compressed neoprene custom made dry suit (at £600 a throw) to using my spare cressi 5mm spearo suit with open cell inside. Also invested in a simple STAB jacket (Aqualung Wave) instead of my back pack. This is a jacket style rather than harness attached to an inflatable bag. Have had no probs at all. Think at the beginning and end of the season when the water drops below about 10 or 12 degrees it might be too chilly for a whole days diving. Also the air temp seems to effect me a lot more than in the dry bag. I'm even using my same weight belt with about 25lbs.
