Anybody had experience with these? My drysuit has neoprene seals, and the wrists always leak. Am considering trying the Bio Seals fot the wrist, but am looking for some feedback.
thx!

Re: Anybody tried Apollo Bio Seals?
There are good AND bad points to them, so let me share my two cents:
Bad: they're a pain to use. they're "sticky", it's difficult to get the drysuit seal on and off of them, you have to be very careful because of that not to tear either the drysuit seal or the bioseal, and they stick out of the seal, which is also a pain (possibly) when you're putting gloves on.
Good: If the drysuit seal is a little big, or your tendons on your wrist are pronounced, and that's why you're leaking, it's likely going to work for you and not leak.
Every single time I've had a wrist seal leak issue, though, it's because I got part of the undergarment under the seal, or I had the seal itself too low on the wrist.
Edited to add: Just saw you've got neoprene seals. I do not know how good they would work with neoprene, if at all. I wouldn't waste the money, to be honest.
