Took me 6 hours to find a leak in a drysuit zipper seal that I swore was fine
Everyone says drysuit leaks are easy to spot just pump it up and listen. Well I spent 6 hours last Saturday at the shop in Port Fourchon spraying soapy water on every inch of that suit. Turns out the leak was in the zipper seal itself a tiny pin hole right where the rubber meets the metal. I checked that area 3 times before I finally saw bubbles. Drove me nuts because I kept thinking it was the wrist seals or neck. Has anyone else dealt with a leak that hid in a spot like that? What trick finally found it for you?

Six hours is just a warm up for my next drysuit leak, which will probably be invisible.
