December 2007: ScubaLab Best Gear Of 2007: Akona Quantum Stretch 3mm
Akona Quantum Stretch 3mm
For comfort and flexibility, it's hard to beat this 3mm full suit from Akona. It puts the block on water with glued and blind-stitched construction, GlideSkin seals at the wrists, ankles and neck, and a flow-foiling flap guarding the zipper. It's made from a four-way stretch neoprene that conforms to your body for an easy, flexible fit. There's a reinforced pull loop at the zipper's base and the kneepads--while modest--are flex- ible and durable. Another nice touch: A coating material on the shoulders prevents your BC from shifting while worn and eliminates stretching when hung up to dry. $180. www.akona.com.
