I have an OThree neoprene drysuit with neoprene wrist seals and Kubis. It just has the wrist seal inside the wider neoprene sleeve to fit the rings. In several years and a few hundred dives I have never torn a neoprene wrist seal so I'd say they are pretty tough. OThree have a lot of expertise in silicone and neoprene seals, and fitting dry gloves to suits. Give them a call? Whatever the final choice I would definitely get a professional to fit it.
#askmark Hi mark I'm soon to go diving on a rib boat and have never dived of a rib boat or any boat for that matter so was wondering how do you do a buddy check on a rib boat if you can't stand up on the rib
It depends on the situation, If you're diving on a RIB from a larger boat, you go through your buddy checks first and then get into the RIB. If you're diving from a RIB from the shore then one diver gets kitted up in the RIB, run through their buddy checks. Then the 2nd diver gets kitted up and then you run through their buddy check. You can do all of your checks sitting down, and you can either sit on the opposite side to your buddy so that you can see one-another. Or if there's enough space, you can sit side-by-side, rest the bottom of your cylinder on the tube, and face each other while sitting.
#askmark...Thinking of starting my own travel dive blogging channel. I really like your video editing, and was wondering if you it in house or get someone to edit for you guys??... If its being outsourced, can you pls...pls recommend a good video editor that wouldn't cost me my left kidney. Thanks
It's all me, I prepare, record, present, edit and upload these videos myself. I learnt all of the editing online, there are plenty of free resources and channels to help learn how to use the software. I use Premier Pro, it's not the cheapest software out there but it has a lot of useful tools
#AskMark Hey Mark, I have a DUI drysuit that has neoprene cuffs. The cuffs have a small tare. Can I get the neoprene cuffs replaced? I'd like to stay with neoprene since I don't like latex.
