Baller Jim Neely Posted February 28, 2011 Baller Share Posted February 28, 2011 Are you using or have you used an Adrenaline or Eagle drysuit? If so what's your opinion of it? Specifically: does it keep you dry? is it durable? is it comfortable?Drysuit weather is nearly over here but I need to replace mine before next year.

Baller ForrestGump Posted February 28, 2011 Baller Share Posted February 28, 2011 I have an Eagle. It's awesome! It's very light and free. I used it last year until our water was over 70 just because it was so easy to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller MAD11 Posted February 28, 2011 Baller Share Posted February 28, 2011 Jim,I have an older O'neill and the new Eagle. The Eagle suit is lighter and the front zip makes it really easy to get in and out of. I have an XL red Eagle sitting here brand new for sale if your interested. Price is good. I am one of the Eagle skier reps. I ordered it for someone and they vanished on me. Marc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller 19skier Posted February 28, 2011 Baller Share Posted February 28, 2011 I have used an Adrenaline baggy for about 8 years. My fourth drysuit and and favorite so far. Just had it resealed for $150 and great customer service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmiller3536 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 I purchased an Eagle Drysuit in the fall of last year. The suit has a small leak in it already around the knee of my right leg. It is not a big leak but when I take it off my suit my thermals from my knee down are soaked.Marc do you know if Eagle has a warranty on their dry suits?

Bud Man Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Jim, Jo was wearing an Eagle suit when you came to ski. She loves it and I’m impressed with it also.   Bmiller3536, If the spray from your ski hits the suit, it can cause what you are describing. Some people wear a large spray legging to protest the suit.

J3 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 I just replaced a 7-year old Adrenaline that I bought new/on sale for $200. Don't know exactly how many sets I had on it.......it was a bunch. As my fellow PNW skiers have demonstrated, we ski in drysuits a lot! I replaced it with a Stay Dry which seems to fit me a little better but regarding durability, I can't complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jam man Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 I'm in a 8-9 year old Adrenaline suit and think the price for the years of service can't be beat. Just had the seals replaced last year for the 2nd time (as I recall). Also a PNW skier and this suit get used almost every month except June, July, and August.

bmiller3536 Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Bud Man I do wear a spray leg on my right leg to protect my suit, in fact it is an eagle spray leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller robscholl-OF Posted March 2, 2011 Baller Share Posted March 2, 2011 8 years on an Adrenaline suit and still with original seals. I always use two spray legs one on each leg which really protects the leg seals. Other than that I spray the seals down with seal spray every few times. As a PNW skier as well, I use my suit a lot. I cannot be more impressed with the suit. I really would like to try one of the Eagle suits with the front zipper though as I cannot zip/un-zip my suit myself.....OF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
