depth?
Hi,
I have used my 7mm Picasso Commercial quite a bit for scuba.
The Commercial is a very tough suit and I have had no wear problems with it all. The down side of using a freedive suit is also its strong point, its ability to flex, and compress. Compression becomes a problem at depth because you get colder faster than in a conventional wet suit. I remember one dive last fall when we had maxed out our bottom time at 120' and had headed home. We stopped at the local dive shop to wash out the gear, and I was so impressed that the dive shop provided hot water for rinsing gear, right from the hose, quite remarkable. Well you guessed it I was highly hypothermic and had mistaken cold tap water for hot water. No it was not a long hose that had been out in the sun. I was cold. So that being said, I guess it depends on the water temp. In the long haul I suspect that the suits have evolved for reasons, very good reasons and that there is no one suit that will do it all well.
