issue neoprene dry suits tend to be bulky, extremely buoyant, and difficult to swim in.

solution ex 4.0 microcell dry suit
Many dry suits are produced with a thicker compressed neoprene. It is less expensive, easier to build, and divers naturally equate thicker material with warmth. If we were talking about a wet suit then that assumption would be correct. A thicker wet suit willl be warmer than a thin one. Water is readily able to enter a wet suit so you need the bulk. On the other hand, a dry suit provides a closed environment which blocks out the elements and retains the heat from your body. In reality the bulkier material is difficult to move in and requires more weight be worn to reduce buoyancy. The ex 4.0 microcell suit has a thermal efficiency equivalent to a much thicker suit without all the bulk and bouyancy. Apollo's microcell suits are easy to move in, require less weight, and gives you a suit that is useable in a wider range of environments. ISSUE 2 Air "trapping" in boot area can cause accidental inversion and often forces diver to wear cumbersome ankle weights. SOLUTION Our patented adjustable ankle relief valves are included with suit. BONUS 5mm boot with tennis shoe sole is excellent protection from rocks and other debris. ISSUE 3 Push button inlet valves can be accidentally activated SOLUTION Our pantented ex inlet valve has slide activation to reduced chance of accidental inflation. BONUS inlet valve rotates 360º; run hose from any direction with comfort. Suit material Seal material 4.0 microcell neoprene Conical shape; trim-to-fit 2nd skin latex External support Flexible polyurethane knee pads help protect suit from abrasion and tearing in this vulnerable area EX Inlet valve 360º rotation/slide activation EX Exhaust (1) left shoulder manual valves and auto relief settings (2) ankles - on/off settings Neoprene boots 5mm w/ tennis shoe sole YKK Zipper Rear entry Seams Blind stiched and glued Internal support Suspenders keep suit in place while diving and allows for comfortable removal of upper suit between dives.

valve provides your choice of manual or auto relief setting. Simplified design for easy owner maintenance / cleaning. Neoprene vs. Shell type dry suits A Shell suit does not supply any warmth. You have to wear several layers or very thick, bulky, undergarments to compensate. Additiionally, if you happen to puncture your shell suit; the inner layer becomes cold, wet and heavy. You are left with little to no protection from the cold. Just like a wetsuit; a neoprene dry suit provides warmth. Significantly less undergarments are necessary. If a puncture should occur; neoprene suits provide wamth even if the interior becomes wet. Addtionally, small punctures can generally be repaired with a dot or two of wet suit glue for minimal loss of dive time. Apollo's Microcell vs. other neoprene options The ex 4.0 has the thermal efficiency equivalent to a much thicker suit without all the cumbersome bulk and bouyancy. The Apollo microcell suit is easy to move in, requires less weight, and gives you a suit that useable in a wider range of environments. Perfect with swim attire in temperate waters, or worn with a polartech TM type under garment to dive in cooler temperatures. There is a variety of innerwear weights to choose from. Pick the one that works best for your needs. Our test divers layered the suit with an expedition weight under garment for a three hour exploration in 39º F/ 5º C waters of Japan's Ryusen-do caves. Feature packed to ensure your suit is easy to use, wear, and maintain. Seals, valves, and suspenders ensure optimum comfort and per formance.

Fit tip: Actual boot length is provided in centimeters next to size. Measure the length of your foot to help determine optimum boot size available. Allow space for any additonal footwear if applicable. P. 12 JUNE 07
