Hello guys i am going to buy a new wetsuit from elios and i would like to ask if anyone have used this material
Suit 3mm Superstretch Thermic lining inside / Smoothskin black outside Neoprene Daiwabo High Density
it's the the most elastic suit in the world,
super-comfortable, soft touch lining inside, very warmth, easy to wear like
a t-shirt and more more durable with lining inside. (low water-resistance)
The suit is going to be 3mm,i am thinking of being smoothskin but i am bit afraid to be open cell as i think that it will be really fragile?Has anyone used daiwabo?I think it is a material for deep diving and i am afraid if it will not be comfortable enough.
I am looking forward for your replies.

I`ve used this suit. Only difference is that mine was 2mm. To me this suit seems like any other top-suit from Elios. Very flexible and with good hydrodynamics. The difference compared to a yamamotosuit is the buoyancy. Less buyoancy is better for deep diving. This in turn also means less insulation.
I`m very happy with my suit.

I think I have a somewhat similar with yamamotot 45 but only 1½mm

Superstretch Thermic (nylon) lining inside / Smoothskin black (silver) outside

I find it verycomfortable, and good to use for both pool and depth in warm waters. The "thinness" of the suit makes it very little buoyant.

The suit in action...

Nice...it took me 2.30 to do a 50M dive with the Waterway Powerblades (capt. Nemo) so I wonder if I get the Glide MONO, if I will be much more efficient???

Wow...you did 70+ under 2.30?!!!

I guess the Glide is one of the best Monos?
