FAQs

How does the AquaLock system keep me warmer?
The interlocking wrist, ankle, and neck seals are designed to mate with compatible AquaLock accessories, significantly reducing cold water entry and helping your body retain heat throughout the dive.

Can I wear this wetsuit without AquaLock gloves, boots, or hood?
Yes. The wetsuit functions perfectly on its own, but pairing it with compatible AquaLock accessories provides the highest level of thermal performance.

Is the rear zipper difficult to use?
No. The PK G-Lock rear zipper is designed for easy entry while helping minimize water movement through the zipper area.

What water temperatures is this wetsuit designed for?
A 7mm wetsuit is generally recommended for cold-water diving, although comfort depends on individual tolerance, dive duration, and environmental conditions.

Care & Maintenance

After every dive, rinse the wetsuit thoroughly with fresh water inside and out. Hang it to dry in a shaded, well-ventilated area using a wide wetsuit hanger. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and store the suit flat or hanging loosely to help preserve the neoprene, seals, and zipper.
