WTB drysuit

[gannon311]

Not wanting to spend big money for a new one so I'm trying to find a good used one. Probably med/ large in size and need to have a tunnel.

Jeff,

Did you find a drysuit? If so, tell us what you got and whether you like it.

Jeff, I will post information from the store I purchased my last OS Systems from when I get home today if they are still in business after all these years. It was a big outdoor retail shop on the left coast. I got my suit w all the bells and whistles for approximately half price. Mine needs new gaskets right now, but I consider my suit well worth its weight in gold.

Jeff, I just looked at Active Watersports web site and they only listed one OS Systems suit, but a call to one of their stores might garner better results. Her is a link to the site: http://www.activewake.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
I would call, as I found my suit for close to half off. My suit is 18 years old now, and besides neck and full booties which need to be replaced, mine still looks great. I only ripped the booties a couple or three years ago when I got in my squirt boat to paddle the first two drops at Cossatot Falls. My OS Surface Water Suit knees and butt are protected with 1000 denier cordura for abrasion resistance, and have slid down some wet nasty craggy hillsides in it. I have yet to puncture the suit itself.
You might try the manufacturer after the holidays to see if they have some last years stock. They might give you a deal as well. See here: http://ossystems.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
I will only have an OS Systems suit. They also do diving dry suits, but man are they expensive.
Good luck with your search.
