 looked at Snap Dragon's website today, and they seem to have several
combination models, at least one of which has a neoprene deck, nylon tunnel,
and an adjustable neoprene band at the top of the tunnel to create a snug
fit, but doesn't encase your midsection in neoprene (the "girdle effect," as
it were).

I have a skirt by Dagger ( I think they call it their tropical skirt) which 
is, nylon deck, nylon tunnel, and an adjustable neoprene band, ( fastens 
tightly w/ velcro )and it also has an implosion bar sewn into the deck. Never 
been severly imploded as of yet so I can't say how effective that feature is. 
I find that it works pretty well, the bungy cord holds well around the 
coaming and keeps seepage out in a sculling brace position. It is comfortable 
and the neoprene band, while allowing a little seepage performs pretty well.
