[JillHeinerth]

Ursuit Heavy Light Kevlar BDS Dry Suit - lightly used
Suit is located in High Springs, Florida near Ginnie Springs

This is a great suit, but I prefer to sell it locally so the buyer can be assured of fit and condition.

Condition: very good

Retail on this is $2499, Asking $800

Size: This suit was custom fitted but somewhere in the range of a men’s ML size. If you are wearing warm water style undergarments (65°+) it should fit up to 5’9”-6’ tall (telescoping torso) and up to 200 pounds and provide what we call a “cave cut,” which means form fitting but easy to move around in without restriction. If you are going to wear heavier undergarments for cold water you’ll need to be in the range of 170 pounds. Size 9 men’s sock style booties, fits well with one or two socks.
Wrist 6.5 inches (can be trimmed to fit a larger person but will leak a smaller wrist) bottle seals
Neck 14 inches (can be trimmed to fit larger person but may leak a smaller neck)

The Ursuit Heavy Light BDS Kevlar (Breathable Diving Suit) has been developed especially for demanding rescue, professional and technical diving. It's name indicates that it is good for heavy use but is very lightweight. The material is a trilaminate fabric with Kevlar reinforcement. It is extremely light and breathable, properties adding to the comfort of the user.

Thanks to the excellent ergonomics and lightness of the Heavy Light BDS Kevlar, many professionals choose this suit for demanding rescue and surface rescue work. Kevlar BDS is also a great choice for traveling purposes. The cut of the sleeves add to the ergonomics.

The three layer fabric with Kevlar reinforcement (20%) is extremely light, with high tear, puncture and wear resistance.
The suit weights only 3,6 kg (L size).
Thanks to warm neck seal and separate neoprene hood suit is comfortable in use.
The front zipper allows you easily to dress the suit without help. The cover on the zipper protects the jacket from rubbing and keeps the zipper clean from sand and dirt.
Automatic outlet valve of low profile type is provided with filter and it's therefore easy to keep clean and other additional equipments can easily be attached. Under the inlet valve is a neoprene padding that divides incoming cold air evenly inside the suit. The swivelling inlet valve reduces the stress on the hose.

The suit is equipped with integrated suspenders and together with the crotch strap they form a telescope waist. Thanks to this telescope waist construction, the ergonomics of the suit give a feeling of ordinary cloth. It also allows the use by persons of different heights. No need for individual suits for each user.
New type, large bellowed Tech thigh pockets on both sides. Tech pockets are easy to open also with dry gloves. On the flap a small pocket with zipper. Inside two elastic loops.
Heat pressed shoulder, knee and back reinforcements prevents wear and tear.

The Seals
This suit has only been dived about dozen times. The seals are original. Though they have little wear, seals do break down from ozone over time, especially in hot weather. You may choose to replace them now if you need a different size or you can wait until they tear. Seals are considered consumable on dry suits, meaning they need to be periodically replaced. Use unscented talc to protect.

If you need to install new seals, I recommend this service. Their prices are reasonable and the workmanship is outstanding:

Gamble Scuba charges roughly $170 for a new set of wrist and neck seals.

Training
If you have not dived a dry suit, you should seek training before doing so. A qualified instructor can guide you through important maintenance, dressing and diving techniques. If you buy this suit for local pickup, I am offering to train you here near my home at Ginnie Springs, High Springs, Florida at no additional charge.

Extras
Really good heavy hood included.
Will include a custom duffle bag if you pay the asked price.
