Drysuit zips tend to be metal toothed such as 'BDM' (I'm aware YKK now own BDM!) or plastic coated 'YKK' or 'TZIP'. Each has their own advantages and disadvantages. Unfortunately this plastic coated one has seen better days. Plastic coating coming away for the material both front and back of the zip letting in water.

Busy few weeks in the workshop. Here is one of yesterdays jobs. Latex neck seal needed replacing. I had to remove the remnants of the original as well as the worn one. Better to start with a clean surface. 😄

This zip was one of the worst of the 4 replaced this week.
Been a busy week rounded off with some diving at Millshore with Ellon Sub Aqua Club.
What a great beach for a shore dive. Quite a few SUP boarders and kayakers on the water there too.

Yes it's a whale! Hoppy's Drysuit Services helped save it. There was some tears and holes needing repaired on an inflatable whale they use for training. It belongs to BDMLR (British Divers Marine Life Rescue) Great organisation run by volunteers from Cornwall up to the North of Scotland.

The cracking on the inside of the drysuit is delamination which is wear and tear. Commonly associated with wearing of lifejackets/PFDs. Most of the time this can be repaired. Always worth a free pressure test.

A customer was complaining of a wet arm and no wonder. The zip was coming away from the suit. Thankfully all sorted and ready for another dive trip.
