Mares 5/3mm Trilastic Diving Hood
Rating: Mares-5-3mm-Trilastic-Hood Comfort and Quality at a Good Price 10/18/2008

This hood is flexible enough to go on and off without feeling like it was pulling my ears off, like so many others have. The seal around my face is soft and comfortable. The bib stays tucked inside my suit. The main thing I notice is when Im tucked in and ready to go, my head doesnt snap back to looking forward when I turn my head to the side! The only caution is that it is a little difficult to adjust the face seal around my mask skirt when I am wearing 7mm gloves. Overall, this is a comfortable, quality mask at an affordable price.

Mares 7/5/3mm Trilastic Superstretch Jumpsuit
Rating: Mares-7-5-3mm-Trilastic-Superstretch-Jumpsuit Very Comfortable! Easy On and Off. 10/18/2008

I was first impressed with how easy it was to put this wetsuit on. As with any wetsuit, I suggest wearing thin Lycra socks and an Underarmour T-shirt, which make on and off much easier. However, the lining in this wetsuit does not tend to stick to your skin. I did not have any problems with the thin water seals around the ankles and wrists. After the suit was on, I was next impressed with how flexible and free my arm and movements were - not the case with other suits I have worn. I am 6, 190, and a Large was a perfect fit, as if it was a custom. I stayed comfortable in the water and on the boat on my last dive trip. I recommend this wetsuit as quality gear for a great price!
