Undersuit wear

[graham10k@blueyonder.co.u]

Hi,
I'm off to Croatia shortly and I will dive in my Northern Diver membrane dry suit. I have a very warm quilted undersuit and I think this will be too warm. I've not dived in with shorts & T shirt in the suit before and wonder, will the suit squeeze affect me adversley - cramp etc.? Dives are expected to be a max of 40Mtrs.
Any recommendations for clothing under the dry suit would be welcome.
Thanks, G10k

As long as you have enough air in the suit to prevent squeeze, that should not be a problem.

I'm not so sure about just wearing shorts and T shirt under the suit - is Croatia really that warm? I wouldn't expect the membrane to be giving much insulation at all. Perhaps some light thermals might be better.

I was there roughly a year ago and it was 16 degrees C. I was diving a 3mm one piece, and it wasn't enough!!
