Cressi Wetsuits

[Beast_Beneath]

Does anyone dive with the Cressi "Tecnica" or "Competition 2" wetsuits?

Just looking at ordering my first freediving wetsuits and would like some suggestions. All help is much appreciated.

The Cressi comp2 is def a good value durable suit. I've found it's not quite as warm as an Oceanos custom (similar price) but that may easily just be down to the fit. I've always found Cressi suits to be fairly tight round my chest but if it fits you it's a nice suit

I’ve had both those suits and am using the Tecnica in between my Elios at the moment, very good suits and like grantl has said above if you are lucky enough to get one that fits you ok then you’re on a winner.

Hi
I have a Cressi technica in 7mm and , man , is it warm.
My first dive with it was in a local river (water temp 4 degrees C ) and I aws still toasty after about 35 minutes in a moderate current. I agree with others on this tread that the fit is the vital factor but mine fits me pretty well and it's supple and kinda cool.
Cheers

I've got both and prefer the Apnea for deep diving. Tecnica seems to have softer neoprene so it's better for the shallows.

Hi,

Does anyone have experience with new 1mm or 2mm suit. I was thinking of getting Aqua Sphere Winter Skin, but they're all pretty much out of stock. Neptune would fit my needs for pool dyn/dnf and warm water freediving. It's just slightly more expensive than Aqua Sphere.

I could not find any information about the Neptune. I don't know if it's been just renamed. I read that somebody had problems with flooding the suit during dynamics. Any comments are appreciated!

what the .... ?!?!

I am thinking that this guy's act creates some interesting coffee table discussion with his family and co-workers (if they exist). Scary stuff :naughty

Well, this might have solved my problem. I just noticed that scubastore has Winter Skin in stock...

Let us know what you think. I've seen pics of Umberto Pelizzari in the Glaros - but it seems a bit expensive to me. The Aquaspheres seem like a very good deal.

Seriously, this guy does also promo's for other brands! Wonder if these are sponsored for him? He has quite a collection.

Here's EliosSub

After a few moments watching this, I find I am completely without something to say :mute

I think that might have ruined the day of quite many people. Terrible misuse of good equipment...
