4) Suit 5mm Green elastic lining inside / Smoothskin black outside Neoprene Heiwa medium Densityit's a good alternative for freediving, always very elastic, comfortable, easy to wear like a t-shirt and more more durable with lining inside. (also reversible

5) Suit 5mm Nylon superelastic blue inside / Smoothskin Black outside Neoprene Daiwabo High Density Price it's the ultimate solutions, very elastic, easy to wear without lubes, comfortable, durable and reversible.





Does it make sense in general to use a reversible suit?


Would be very nice to get some advice.
 
The Elios 2-piece suits are by design reversible.

I use a normal lined/open cell -suit both ways. open cell on the inside for warmth, or lining on the inside to cool it down a bit.

an option would be to get pants that are smoothskin/lined, and a top that is smoothskin/open cell. So the pants are durable and a bit cooler while the top is warm and more flexible...
 
one more question...how difficult is it to get into smoothskin/lined or smoothskin nylon...will I need to use soap or talkum?
