Hi,

I use the Halcyon Gators with a DUI CLX450.

Main advantage I see: protect the dry-suit from potential damage..

The DUI suits have a cut that does not allow too much air to be trapped in the legs. Thus if you use your suit correctly (injecting air only in the suit to prevent the squeeze and not to trim) then the gators are a nice to have, not a must. They reduce the risk but do not eliminate it.

Kind regards.
