There are many different types of diving suits are generally divided into two types, wet suit gentle pressure, or an environment that is the most popular and widely used in the normal dips and hard atmospheric pressure suit and scuba diving.


Wetsuit
     The suit is designed to allow water into the suit and the water begins to warm to body temperature and acts as insulation against heat stroke. To demand to be efficient should be a perfect fit to the body and joints flexible cuffs help achieve this goal. It is believed that the modern wetsuit can be credited to U.S. Navy divers around 1951, but it was not until 1953 that the demand made of neoprene know today was introduced and manufactured.
Wet suits come in many different thicknesses depending on the conditions under which will be used, however, the bulk of demand is less mobile than the diver may be. They also come in different lengths of the short form to the short arm and leg length to complete sets that cover the arms and legs completely.

Dry suit

The dry suit is used traditionally in the top of insulation under the suit, but now some are divers wetsuit under the dry suit instead, and some costumes were built in boots, while others have ankle seals in place.
