I see most reviews are from surfers, is this wetsuit good for scuba diving?

No its probably way too thin for that. I just use it for kayaking in California during the fall and winter months its perfect for me but you likely need a 5/4 at least. Hope this helps out some

Yes, I use mine equally as much for diving and surfing. I am a tech diver and have used this suit in a variety of water conditions, ocean, bays, and river. I must have used this suit over 100 times last year between surfing and diving. It doesnt have any signs of breaking down on me at this point. It's great for the price. Hope this helpsbtw, I live in Florida and i wouldnt use this suit to dive in the winter. You may want something thicker depending on where you are.

I think they call them "water resistant", but unless you are going scuba diving with these they will be what you need. Trudged through several miles of deep snow post holing all the way and the layers under the gaiter were still dry.

I am 140ish pounds and 69 inches tall, and a Medium was a little snug. The problem I had with this wet suit was the neck was TOO tight, but I am a scuba diver, not a surfer. I would recommend that you use a bath towel rolled up and stuffed into the neck to stretch it some.

I'm not a big swimmer, however, it is really moisturizing so I would assume that it would be good for that.

A good fit is a must when you are purchasing a mask. While this mask is designed to seal the nose, it's important that you test it before you go out for a real dive. In your case try this maneuver on your kayak in your pool before you venture to open water. Thankfully the return policy for Amazon allows you to return at no charge a product that does not do what it's supposed to do. I hope this helps.

It works well for scuba diving. I prefer the video quality to the GoPro and Contour because of the video stabilization. You will need to purchase the ADA-RD1 with the flat port for underwater. Happy shooting

They are.............but since they are neoprene and have sewed seams, they won't last long. Personally, having owned three drysuits and multiple wetsuits, I wouldn't do that.

Hello. See my answer below. First, though I would recommend another brand entirely. These fog up terribly and the fit leaves something to be desired. I have been a swimmer and scuba diver for many years and would suggest you go cheaper if you are just planning to swim. Speedo is a good brand overall. Also, would recommend that you wear contact beneath your mask. You are more likely to get headaches with glasses on. There will be double depth to your overall perception. Hope this helps.

I usually wear a size 10 or so, and I got a Large wetsuit. It is hard to get on, harder to get off wet..I use it in a pool. Maybe it should fit tighter, but this is easier for me to get on and off (even with the zipper in front).

I bought this model for my wife how is 4'11" and around 106 lbs. It seems to fit her well. Best bet is to go to a dive shop and try on their suits. You may have to result to trial and error.

I've only snorkeled. It's great for snorkeling I don't know about deeper waters

Chart was accurate for shoe size. Personally i would go to a dive shop if i was diving daily. It is a great set for the price and i would not be afraid to even do a tech dive with that equipment. If i was diving daily i would spend a little more and get sea vision mask and tusa flippers. If you are just snorkeling for oysters and such definite buy. I say med or large.

I don't fish, but as a SCUBA diver, I have found the gloves pretty flexible and warm. The glued seams need some improvement.

I am not sure what % but it is flexible and I would think a good suit for water aerobics...I thought of using it for the same but so far have only used in the ocean. It is probably the right thickness because when you go to higher, say 2mm and 3mm the suits are generally less flexible with increasing thickness. This one is nice and thin and I use it in the summer when the water is between ~68-72F for surfing, skin diving, and boogey boarding. I like to be warm and also prevent sunburn so this works well. If I get cold the next time I am in the indoor pool, this is the suit I would use - not a 2 or 3mm suit.

Still a good wetsuit for beginners or people who can tolerate cold water better

Yes, I bought it for that purpose specifically. Suit offers good flexibility; I wouldn't buy anything greater than 3mm for surfing.Hope this helps!

I wore it in the ocean. It's a nice suit. Snorkle three times last week in it. Good bang for your buck.
