Josh,

I've been watching your posts with great amusement, as my timeline has been just about a week behind yours. Last week a DUI CF200 I picked up on eBay arrived via UPS. It has neoprene seals that seemed a bit tight, especially on the wrists. Today MY undies arrived. I got a DUI ThermalMax 300 Jumpsuit, another eBay purchase. So of course, I had to try everything on!

But before struggling with the seals again, I called my favorite instructor and for asked a bit of advice. Instead of cutting the seals, he suggested trying a little bit of diluted liquid soap. I was able to get my hands through without too much struggle.

Now I just have to convince my better half that even though she is the one usually getting cold first, her wetsuit will be just fine for a day on Catalina this weekend. The instructor/buddy said a personal class is available as soon as I am.

Cheers!

SoBay Jim.
