  1. if the wet siuts r dry when u put them on then there very comfotable and warm but if there damp then there ok


  2. I have three different suits, two wet and one dry.  First is the Spring suit, 3/2 mm thickness body core/extremedies respectfully. The arms and legs are short, meaning exposed from just above the elbow and knee.  I where this one on the chilly mornings and evenings during the mid to late fall.  Second is a full suit, 3/2 also, but long sleeves and legs.  I were this one as the temps get into the 50's and a water temp in the low 60's upper 50's.  Boths of these suits provide warmth in keeping your body heat from escaping while wet.  Water does get into these, but you body heat warms up what water gets in and affords you a longer riding season.  Lastly, my dry suit which is of the bag variety, meaning it is a baggy suit with a water tight zipper and latex at the neck, wrists, and ankles.  This thing is amazing, you could actually where a business suit underneath and not get wet. (not that that would be advised however because you sweat inside it actually.  I break this out when the water temps and air temps both get into the low 50's and 40's and the air temp is the same.  This suit offers you the ability to move without restriction, the only thing negative about the dry suit is that it is baggy and catches more wind, but the added warmth of being able to layer clothing under it depending on the conditions is a huge plus.  There have been some hybrids on the market for years where one half is baggy (upper) and the lower half is 5mm thick I believe.  Less wind resistance but form my conditions, the complete baggy dry suit works best because I can deterine the layers for warmth.  I have also been know to simply trunk it on New Years Day because I'm nuts.  But my new philosophy is, why be cold if you don't have to be.  The dry suit rocks if you are in cold air/water temp environments.  Hope this info helps you deside.

    I picked up my dry suit from http://www.adrenalinewatersports.com for a good price.  They have some good info explaining picking a dry suit to meet your needs if you go that route.
