my buddy this past weekend commented that i
wasn't putting enough air in my suit to keep
me warm. when i put in more air than i usually
do, i instantly felt what many divers have talked
about: it was my first time experiencing the air
in the legs syndrome and it was VERY noticeable.

my buddy says she likes to wear more wt so that
she can put more air in her suit to stay warm (...i'm of the opinion that i don't want to wear
too much wt, but now i'm not sure if i'm using
enough air or not; and if not, then i will
have to wear more lead or get some gator-like
contraption, etc.)

as for feet/legs, i already wear coolmax socks
under a pair of thick wool socks.

i don't have the new 'cave' cut suit, i have
the 'old' tls350 suit.
