RE: [Paddlewise] Dry Suit Field Test

One thing that makes sense with dry suit usage is the "buddy system", 
something commonly done in scuba diving. Before heading out, have a 
buddy check your zippers and gaskets, then you check theirs. 
Sometimes it is just a bit too easy to forget one of those zippers. 
The ideal deal test would be to wade out up to your neck, but in 40 
degree water that gets real unappealing real quick.
