PEOPLE FROM AROUND THE GLOBE ♥ LOVE SHARKSKIN
- EJE J R.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars6 days agoAbsolutely the best purchase I have made
-I purchased this product for travel diving.
-I used it in Thailand Jan 2025 with water temperatures around 26 to 28 degrees C.
-I dived 4 dives every day with the last dive as a night dive. (16 dives in a row)
-This product kept me very warm and I was hugely impressed with its performance.
-Bonus with the product is it weighs a fraction of the weight of a wetsuit at approx 900 grams saving on luggage weight.
-Huge bonus is it is negative buoyant so I only had to use 1.6kgs of weight rather than the typical 6kgs I would normally use. (My body weight is 75kgs)
-My air consumption was better with a SAC rate of approx 0.9 but this will get better the more I get used to the negative buoyancy and shallower breathing required.
-It made it easier as a photographer to hover over the reef to take photos and also be steady enough for macro photography.
-It also dried very quickly ready for travel again.
-I would highly recommend this product to divers in warm water.

This suit is a game changer if you are a spearo. I live in NZ and the water is not warm, but this suit keeps me warm even when we are down at 30 meters spearing. The only thing it is missing is a chest pad for reloading the gun...so I added one easily and now I will wear this year round.

Light weight wetsuit alternative worked well in cold water under my traditional suit.

I purchased the T2 Chillproof suit and tried it for scuba diving recently, I did 2 x 19m dives in the suit @ 22°C, the suit was easy to put on and take off, when putchasing I followed the recommendations of buying a size below the size of wetsuit I normally wear, I was very happy with the fit and comfort.
I did a boat entry which was a bit apprehensive jumping in due to not wearing it before and after getting over the initial shock of water the suit did its job, through out the dives I was comfortable however the added bonus for me was the neutral buoyancy and how much weights I managed to drop and probably could have dropped another kilo or so, others on the dive felt the cold half way through the second dive while I carried on, this would have gotten 5 stars, however I dis not feel like it was equivalent to a 4/5mm as advertised however it was more like a 3/4mm, I would have to reassess in water temp less than 22°C, very happy with the purchase

I have just used the wetsuit to scuba dive in18 deg C for 35 mins with T2 hood and found it to be warm enough. It was easy to put on and take off. It is neutrally buoyant. It has a useful arm pocket and leg pocket. Nee pad are also good idea. Nice one Sharkskin. Straight in washing machine with wetsuit wash.
Oh also completed my 100 dives.
