Mike VanDamm states that fuzzy rubber should be tested in cold water, as it
will "flood."  





This is the exact experience I have had with mine.  As long as I stay above
the water, it's an excellend wind-breaker, and it's soft and comfy.  But it's
not tight like neoprene, so is next to worthless when immersed.





Kirk--is this better??
