HOLLIS BIODRY FX100 SUIT FOR REPAIRS ONLY  SIZE UNKNOWN (1E) APPROX. OVERALL LENGTH: 6'3"

SPECS
• Style: Front Entry, Diagonal Zip
• Suited For: General-Purpose Diving

FEATURES
Constructed of BioFlex, a high-stretch fabric overlaid with WearForce, a lightweight non-woven nylon laminated to a heavy-duty, stretchable polyurethane.

• Seams are sewn and double-taped for protection against leaks.
• Diagonal front waterproof zipper is protected by an over-zip system.
• Expandable cargo pockets positioned on each thigh are equipped with pre-bent D-rings.
• Suit comes with reinforced composite kneepads.

PERFORMANCE
The FX100’s body material has a fuzzy-ish texture to it and it also has a bit of stretch, so it’s possible to get a snug fit and enjoy excellent range of motion without the need of a telescoping torso. Eight test divers were able to dive this suit, with six of them reporting a “Good Fit. The suit comes with a heavy-duty latex neck seal and bottleneck-shaped wrist seals. The attached soft socks are made of the same BioFlex material as the body of the suit. Donning the FX100 proved to be relatively easy for most testers, and zipping it up was easy too—once you get the zipper over the shoulder. The waterproof inner zipper starts high, almost behind the shoulder, and the outer zipper in its closed position ends high. So getting the main zipper started when donning, and getting the over-zipper started while doffing, takes a bit of stretch. Some test divers just couldn’t do it without a little help from their buddies. But that was the only dig aimed at this suit. The FX100 behaved well in the water; testers commented that the suit felt “lean” while swimming—no apparent drag. It earned good marks for overall comfort, for the comfort of the seals, and it had one of the easier to reach (perhaps due to the suit’s excellent range of motion) and more efficient exhaust valves. Cargo pockets were sized right and well-positioned, and the D-rings were a nice touch.
Form-fitting with virtually no hydrodrag, plus comfortable seals and some very functional cargo pockets, the FX100 has a lot going for it. As it turned out, it was one of the most popular general-purpose suits in this go-round, and it tied for third overall on the test team’s Top 3 Favorites list.
