Hi All,
For some of the 'Wet Caves' that the club visits a Wetsuit is a must. Usually its good to have a cheaper one that you dont mind bringing into a cave environment. Remember that overly heavy wetsuits will make you expire with the heat if you are not wet all the time.
Personally i find that the Wetsuits offered by Aldi and LIdl from time to time (long sleeve/ long legs) offer the best value for money and work well especially for caving.. you can always layer up with a rash vest or similar...
SRT'ing down beside/ under a waterfall is a prime example of needing a wetsuit... but also caves that you must swim / float through..
This week Aldi have wetsuits for €40
