Scuba Gear Reviews by Deanna R.

Rating: I wanted to like it.... 5/18/2009

But I dont, while it fits well, etc, the suit is not warm at all. I was cold on every dive while we were in Belize. I think it is really a 2mm suit with some sparse 3mm stuck in there so they can call it a 3mm. If you are warm blooded, you may like it. I normally love Oneill stuff but this one just isnt going to cut it when we go to Hawaii where I will need a REAL 3mm suit.

Mares 3mm Tropic Jumpsuit
Rating: Cut off circulation 5/3/2009

I had to return this wetsuit. I tried it on and had it on for only a few minutes when I noticed my arms were tingling and going numb. The material bunches up under your armpits and caused the numbness for me. It also seemed to run big, the torso part of it was not even touching my skin in the back by the zipper.

Mares 3mm Tropic Jumpsuit
Rating: Great little beanie 12/8/2008

I have been diving with this for a few years and mainly wear it to keep my hair in one place and also for warmth. I love it. I bought this one, however, for my husband who recently had surgery on his head. It gave us a feeling of protection over his scar. Its great for warm water diving.

XS Scuba Folding Wetsuit Hanger
Rating: Great item for traveling 12/8/2008

We bought this for our trip to Jamaica to hang out our stuff at the resort. It worked great and you can fit several items on it. Its very sturdy. One thing to note is if you are within a pound or two with your checked in luggage, you may go over with the hanger. Its heavy (for a hanger) but we have 2 of them and will be traveling with them from now on when were going diving.
