[orinoco]

I'm now looking at floatation suits for this season. Wich ones are you all using? I'm thinking of the Sundridge sas mk5 2 piece. Any comments?
Cheers

If i get another thats the one i,m going for. I like the fleece lined chest pockets. At the moment my old suit which is now coming round to its fourth season is still ok-but is showing its age.
My mate has a Fladen which i like but has no chest pockets.

I bought my sundridge 2 piece last year & it was the best thing I bought.
It was one of the cheapest on the market & great value for money.
In the winter I wear thermals, a thick shirt, fleece jacket, trousers & then the flotation suit & I stay dry & warm. The side hand warmer pockets are nicely positioned & keep your hands dry & warm.
Highly recommended.

Where did you buy them from? and what type of wellies do you wear with the floatation suit? Sorry for the daft questions, but i've never had one before!

I use ordinary wellies with a couple of pair of socks (one thermal).
This season i am going to buy some Ron Thompson fleece lined wellies. They look ok.

Tried alsorts to keep my feet warm in the winter & ended up buying some Skeetex boots from N.E. tackle in Sunderland £60.00. Well worth the money & kept my feet lovely & warm.

Got a pair of skeetex can't say i was impressed with them, having no left or right foot, poor grip makes it hard going if you have far to walk.
Next boots will be either sundridge hot foot or deri.

I can reccommend Sundridge Hot Foot thermal boots, fleece lined and a thick foam insole. Keeps your feet lovely and warm on the coldest of nights. You can have the best suit in the world but if you've got cold feet..........

I got the sundridge two piece,walked into Sedgfield car boot and spotted it next to a stall I picked the coat up to inspect as it looked new and the guy said that's a special industrial type thingy theirs trousers with that jacket couldn't take less than 10 quid mind.
