Typhoon Multisport drysuit
The Typhoon Multisport drysuit.
In this review we have given our first impressions of this suit and
how it preformed first time out please bear in mind that the user
is wearing a full dry suit for the first time in this case richj is
our tester we will add to this review periodically as richj gets
used to using it .
The first thing that you will notice with this suit is
the shape its nicely cut with elasticised Velcro fasteners on each
hip so you can adjust the waistline to suit you it also has a front
convenience zip .
The wear areas around the bum and knees have an extra layer of
protective material.
This is a rear entry suit so the main zip is along the rear
shoulders as this means that the stiffness of the zip is not going
to hinder your movement.
It has latex seals on the neck and the wrists these sometimes
require stretching with hot and cold water or trimming to get that
perfect fit for the individual
The built in socks are
heavy duty latex as well which will keep all the water out.
It is Important to remember to wear some sort of protective
footwear over these socks to protect against any sharp objects such
as small stones from puncturing the latex
.
Note the strong watertight entry zip on the rear
shoulders.
The colour of this suit is dark blue and grey both colours
compliment each other very nicely
After the first paddle for a couple of hours I asked
rich his opinions on a few aspects of the suit his answers are
below.
How does the suit feel ?.It feels very comfortable
Did you have to adjust anything on the suit before using
?.No it’s just as it comes.
How did you find the neck and wrist seals ?.I had no
problem at all with them they were very comfortable all day.
Was you dry when you removed your suit ?.yes no water came
in at all.
Would you change anything with the design of the suit? .no
I like it as it is.
This has shown to be a very good suit the retail cost is
£299.aprox.
