I just dont think of skin tight neoprene as being a dry suit. The only insulation is 5.3 neoprene, not clothing underneath. If it is truly dry why would you bother making the neoprene skin tight? Dry suits you can layer clothes under to suit the conditions.

I have Heat 5/3 with hood. Not warm enough for winter. Why would the pryde be any warmer

Ever tried the Pyro ?
