Wetsuit Diving in Cold Water
Here’s a look at the scuba gear I currently use when I'm diving in cold water without my drysuit. A wetsuit is always going to be more convenient and cheaper than a drysuit, so I prefer to dive wet unless I am heading out to Lake Michigan our I'm pushing into early Spring or late Fall.
This page reflects my personal experience and preferences based on my diving style, training, and the conditions I dive in. Gear selection is highly individual, and what works for me may not be ideal for everyone. If you're unsure about equipment choices, I always recommend testing different options in real diving conditions before making a decision.
