    Default FS: Pinnacle Black Ice (XS)

    Pinnacle Black Ice Drysuit, size extra small. Suit is in fantastic condition, it belongs to my wife and she is 10x's easier on gear than I am! Suit was purchased from Cave Adventurers in 2011 and has approx 100 dives on it. Suit had new wrist seals put on last winter but has original zipper and neck seal. Suit has size 8 soft/sock booties on it and has typically been dove with converse shoes. Suit comes with original bag and I have the original Pinnacle Merino lined hood (never used) that I can include. On a scale of 1-10, 10 being brand new and 1 being "garbage"... the suit is a solid 8. Suspenders were sewn in by Gamble and he also did the wrist seal swap out.

    Suit is has always been hung up to dry for 24 hrs, seals cleaned with UV protect, then stored rolled up in the bag inside the house.

    $500

    Pickup in Jacksonville, FL, drop off in cave country (ginnie area) or shipping can be arranged.

    Interested. How tall is your wife?

    She is 5 foot 7 inches... And let's just say it would fit somebody according to Pinnacle size chart between 115 and 150 pounds

    Wow - I'm 5'5" and I'm having my suit's socks lengthened. How did she fit in it?

    I throw the BS flag on someone 150 lbs fitting in it. . . . unless the person was greased with teflon!

    I'm toying with the idea of a 2nd dry suit. Would your wife want a trilam White's Fusion?

    I could be off by an inch, but I will say the thing fits here like a glove. The main reason we got her out of this suit was that she has a hell of a time getting in and out of it by herself because she is not strong enough to pull the top over her head. Now that you mention it, it could be a tad too short for her, hence giving her this problem. She has only dove it alone once, and although i wasn't there, she said everybody at JB had a good laugh while she took 5 minutes to try and get out of it... luckily Edd was nearby and gave her a hand. Thankfully she doesn't look at the CDF, so I can safely say she is in the 130 "ish" range... you are probably right about the 150lb thing... I was guessing.

    Probably a no-go on the fusion... I just put her in a DUI TLS and she is much happier. No real need for a second suit... we kept this one around thinking it would be nice to have a spare, but it has sat in the closet for the past 8 months and we never take it along to the dive sites, so having a spare really isn't of much benefit.

    It is a great suit, in super good condition.

    I love mine, but not having a second suit sure does kill off a dive trip.

    Just not able to afford it right now. Keep me in mind, huh?
