Outstanding and comprehensive explanation! I've been diving drysuits for 20 years: with proper care and maintenance as well as a few design upgrades (field replaceable silicone neck seal and changeable cuffs and latex/silicone wrist seals that connect (insert into) to the suit's flexible suit ring, and the installation of a Light Monkey P-valve (with quick disconnect to the "Texas catheter"/condom [or for women the anatomically correct "She Pee" ] and two huge Light Monkey thigh pockets (affixed 5 cm forward of each side for ease of access while sidemount diving!) that OSSYSTEMS SAAR-V [bilaminate] drysuit afforded 19 years -- and still has several years of use left in it for a prospective diver (in My Size!) ... Now, I'm loving my (Polish-made -- they know cold water diving!) Santi e-Lite trilaminate drysuit with ALL the features described above carried-over into this suit! After nearly 50 years of diving and instructing, both recreational and technical, I plan to be diving this Santi suit for another 15 years!!! Proper weighting and weight distribution is crucial to horizontal trim -- even while descending and ASCENDING!!! With experience, drysuit divers LEARN to "feel the bubble" as it moves (seeking the highest point) *within* your drysuit. One item divers may consider adding to their "kit" is "shin 'gaters' ", which strap-on to encircle and constrict your drysuit's lower legs in order to prevent the gas in the suit from flowing into your lower legs and feet to prevent an unnerving legs-first inverted ascent [PRACTICE the somersault in tuck position FREQUENTLY!] untill you are confident of your ability to "feel the bubble" and distribute your weights along your body's "major (head to tail/along your spine) axis" and also, balancing any torques (around your body's waist). YOU'LL ENJOY COLD WATER DIVING, especially when you're DIVING DRY AND WARM!!!!!!!
