I'm about to order a proper wetsuit for Canadian waters (apneaddict sold me to aqualand too). I also need a gun and I'll be ready to go but of course that means I'll have to wait a few weeks. If you guys meet above the water sometime though, I'd really love to join you.
I finally got in the water with my Aqualand suit on Wednesday and it was great. I ordered a 5.5 mm and it kept me toasty warm and mostly dry in the water. Not sure what the water temp was but it was definitely way too cold to swim without a suit on. The suit fits great, I can swim without any difficulty and it was easy to put on with a little hair conditioner and water mixture.
Also, if you're looking to get other gear (guns, fins, masks etc...), you might want to consider scubastore.com also. I got a huge order from them and everything went smoothly. Their selection is decent and their prices are very good, especially if you make a big order because they combine shipping. It took about a week for some of my out-of-stock items to get to their warehouse but once they were in stock, it only took about two business days to get my order. I only had one small problem, they forgot to send me the nylon line for two of my spearguns (my buddy's guns had the line... of course) but I contacted them and they are going to send it to me.
Thanks! I hope so too.Anyways... welcome to the forum... hope to see you in the water.
How long did it take you to get the wetsuit in your hands?
They received my payment on May 21, shipped on May 29, arrived in Ottawa on June 4.
Tell Brad, Cary sent ya
I'm trying to checkout from the mako website, but the only country that I can choose is USA,
I sent them an email already, but how did you guys bought yours?
Ok, I've ordered both speargun and wetsuit. I'll probably be ready to go in a couple of weeks.
awesome Mako sends it UPS, it will be there soon
Ah, UPS, no good news. I have to take a day off and sit inside waiting for a package 'cause they won't tell me a specific time window. Plus there's a brokerage fee of around forty bucks, that's almost a quarter of the price. Did you guys have to pay that too?
Yeah, we may have to arrange something like this next time..I did for my 1st order, now Brad down-values all my stuff, sorry to hear man.
I won't have my wetsuit yet but do post again next time, I'll be glad to join.I'm heading to Valleyfield this weekend for walleye, if anybody is interested.
Hey Climber, Please post pics of your trip, every thing, I want to know what the Terrain looks like as well as the water.
Could you glance around to see if there are any camp grounds near the water, I need a place to crash.
Thanks, Kerry.
