Talk:Dry suit

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The intro mentions that drysuits are worn by "scuba divers, small boat users and others who work or play in or near to cold water", but the rest of the article is exclusively about the scuba-diving kind. It would be great to get some input from kayakers, for example, who often wear a different kind of drysuit. FreplySpang 18:01, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

I made the text more generic, and added entries for watersports. My experience is with wind and kite surfing, so it would still be good to get kayaking info. --Dhaluza 03:17, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merge

I'm against the merge. A drysuit is not a type of wetsuit. They are both environmental and thermal protection suits for use in or near water. Both were at one time described in a single article (diving suit); do we really want to go endlessly round in circles? Mark.murphy 17:58, 27 September 2006 (UTC)


No thanks, they are completly different things... Chris
