Dry way to hell

I've often wondered why we as surfers don't use dry suits and always assumed it was because they were just too baggy but a company in North America called Ocean Rodeo have developed one, especially for surfers which I'd definitely consider buying next time I need a steamer.

Imagine not having to wear a heavy 6mm wet, winter suit which never ever dries out, especially if you want to surf over consecutive days (rare in Wales I know!) ;)

And the dreaded 2nd session in winter - screaming as you force your way into a cold, wet, suit with a NE wind blowing straight onto your pink bits! Brrrrrrrr

The only fly in the ointment appears to be having to don 3 different layers so I'm not sure how long all that would take - a thermal, a loose inner dry and a tight outer layer.

Here's a clip of Erik Hanson wearing and surfing one in Canada - the ultimate cold water testing ground:
