Re: [Paddlewise] Doug's Ultimate Drysuit

I swim in my dry-suit regularly; it's waterproof. However, it's not an
antiperspirant. In my breathable dry-suit, I never have pooling sweat. I do
find typical sweat spots, which could only be more widespread in a
non-breathable dry-suit. The key advantage to a breathable dry-suit is that
I can wear it over a wind range of air temperatures and still be comfortable
with a fully sealed suit--50F water combined with 65-70F air temperature is
still comfortable. I guess one advantage to a non-breathable dry-suit is
that regular rotational cooling is a great way to work on your roll!
