At a start there, I though winter had arrived already. Nice test. Falls here, and winter be coming soon enough. Thank you for sharing. You have a wonderful day.
Hey guys, it's been a couple years. How are the suits holding up? Any pros/cons? Suggestions? Would you buy this brand again, or do something different? Thanx!
Great question! Yes - the suits are holding up great! Both my wife and I have the emperor drysuits and love the durability. But, truth be told, we bought these specifically for canyoneering (swimming, hiking, rappelling in slot canyons - even in the water) and I have two videos where you can see how they held up (which was great!). 1) Zero Gravity 2) Das Boot. Those are the two you can see us wearing in frigid temperatures but enjoying the slot canyons nonetheless. Hmm. Cons? I wish the fleece pocket in the front was better. It kinda works but could be better designed. Pros? Incredibly comfortable. I can wear all day easily. All day. The zippers are great for relief (bathroom breaks) and the durability and robustness and high quality is incredible. I have used a kokotat and while it worked good enough - having used the Level Six one, I wouldn’t go back until Kokatat steps up. But for kayaking and stuff like that while using these - not sure, as we haven’t tested them for those sports but would imagine they would hold up very easily. I have emailed Level Six a few times about making a canyoneering specific dry suit but no responses back yet. I think it would set gold standard for dry suits for canyoneering, personally. I try to find them on discount if you can, if you decide to buy. Black Friday, Christmas specials, etc.

Nice. Good catch. Ya, it was set back in January of this year. I have about 50 videos on backlog that I'm finally getting too. Thanks for watching!
Wow you guys 👏👏 what a test for everyone. Happy new year 🎆
Yea, it was crazy to swim through the ice! Thanks you too!
