*Santi BZ400X* - bit.ly/3ChDSaZ The Santi BZ400X is a thicker drysuit undersuit for cold water diving. Made for water temperatures below 7°C, the BZ400X has a great warmth to weight ratio for long or cold dives.
Santi make some of the best undersuits on the market, and the BZ400 is no exception., Using the BZ400 with a FE X-Core, makes for the best mid winter undersuit combination. Wish I could say the same about their drysuits.
Where do I start. Boots leaked after 50 dives, had to be replaced, and quite a common problem. Neck seal went after less than a year, follwed by the zip. Now up to three leaks on the legs. My suit was an Emotion, and I’m not a heavy user or abuser of dive kit. They are very stylish, but rather fragile. After 5 years and about 300 dives, I have relegated it to a spare.
@@stevenlovell3466 thank you for information, I'm looking into buying santi or fourth element and I don't know what to buy, do you have latex or silicon seals?
@@scubacro5758 To be fair to Santi, the problems were mainly with the add ons and not the fabric of the suit. I would advise the Elite rather than the Emotion. I think the fabric is heavier on that suit. The Fourth Element suit is good. I have gone for silicon seals on my new suit, with Kubi dry gloves. They are as durable as latex and user replacable. My new suit is an O’Three 90Ninety trilam.
#askmark These kind of undersuits always looks super buoyant to me…do these kind of undersuits require a lot more lead? Compared to say the Fourth Element Arctic?
@@stevenlovell3466 Cheers for that. That’s kind of what I imagined, 3-4 kg for something this heavy duty. I’m looking at a heated vest now I think instead of this.
