Do you wear a Speedo under your wetsuit for scuba diving?
Definetely wore a speedo under my shortie wetsuit for scubaing. Would have liked to just wear a speedo when out in the sea, but I think the wetsuit works best at 30m and when wreck and reef exploring. SCUBA in a speedo is the next best thing to SCUBA naked, but then you would have to worry about hungry fish.

Layering a neoprene vest (particularly a hooded vest) under a wetsuit is an excellent way to conserve warmth without increasing wetsuit thickness. Neoprene vests help a wetsuit to slide over a diver’s chest easily, and provide coverage for more modest divers.
