Re: 3 or 5 mm?

I have a friend who blew out his 3mil open/smooth suit just rolling off a boat.
My suggestion for your suit is get superstretch nylon on the outside. Inside Elios has a number of open cell coatings - really any of them, or just plain open cell, are fine. I have 'black shadow' with the 'new black' coating inside - my dive buddy has the 'titanium' coating - we both dive year round down to 2C water temps in our 5 mils.
