Specialty - Ice or Dry Suit

[arcFlash]

Call me dumb than. I took ice class and dry at the same time. You get the hang of the dry suit during the pool work so it's not your first time. I think it was better value as well. I got ice instruction and dry suit instruction for one low price. I also enjoyed being dry all day.

I bought a dry suit two weeks later and haven't been in my wetsuit since. I dive dry year round. Ice diving is just another way to get in the water. The vis is better and as I only really dive MN, it's worth the work to get to the better sites san boat traffic.

Taking ice and dry put me in a dry suit sooner than I otherwise would have. I would do it again.

If you want to dive in MN you'll end up in a dry suit anyway so get that if you can only have one.

7mil in Superior, yes but it's no fun. You get cold and you get wet. Go dry if you can. It's really the way to go if your serious about being active in MN.
