| Plenty of people dive wetsuits in Mexico. They all get cold, unless they are doing really short dives.
Diving a drysuit means you will "learn" to use the suit in a cave. If you dive wet, you will not have that benefit.
It is better to learn in the gear you will use for most of your diving.
Also, "redundant buoyancy" is not DIR. There is no such thing. With a balanced rig, you don't need "redundant buoyancy". |
