Spearfishing and freediving wetsuits

Spearfishing and freediving wetsuits .There are literally hundreds of different wetsuits to choose from in today’s marketplace so how do you know which one is right for you? How do you know what features you should look for?Along with quality, thickness and finishes of the neoprene, you will need to consider the style and cut of a wetsuit when choosing what to buy. A one piece suit is simple, quick and easy to put on, usually with a back zipper. But it won’t generally be as warm as a two piece suit. On the other hand todays one piece semi dry suits offer plenty of warmth without the need for the diver to carry truckloads of lead around just to get down! Therefore it is very important when you are comparing different suits to look at the features of a suit, not just the fancy patterns or colours.
