New Testimonials for Surf-fur

Cynthia,

Wanted to touch bases with you regarding the surf-fur you sent me for evaluation.  Unfortunately, we haven’t been able to use it diving yet, but we have certainly given it a good check-out in the snow.  I think you should consider marketing it as an Apres-ski (or in our case Snowshoe) coat as well.  As you can see by the attached pictures, my wife was delightfully warm as me and our friend hopped around trying to stay warm.  As I noted in my initial email to you, that’s pretty unusual for Pearl, so quite the testimonial for the coat in a purpose it wasn’t really intended for.  Pearl also definitely prefers the zipper over snaps (although we have actually never tried one with snaps).  She says that snaps would not only have more opportunity for coming undone inadvertently, but would also provide less wind-proofing.   She was definitely impressed with not only the wind-proofing of the coat, but also its waterproofing (you only need to take a look at the picture of her rolling around in the snow in it ….more than ample testimonial from a true cold blooded person.

Anyway, hope you had a good trip to the Arctic; hopefully we’ll be able to book a dive trip soon to give you some more feedback.  Attached are several pictures that you are free to use as you see fit.

 Thanks

 Bill (and Pearl)

Ps  It also works well as a hot tub robe

Pps  It would be good to get the weight down a little for packing/travel purposes (those darn baggage fees/limits), if that can be accomplished without impacting performance adversely.
