Hi Mike

Just for reference:

We just made a 90 minutes 1,5 km long dive partly under ice in Southern Finland using trilam suit, dry pressure equalized gloves, argon and thinsulate 400 undersuit. Water temperature was exactly 0 degrees celsius all the way. I'm 65 and did not suffer from the condition at all.

The most important reason for convenient dive was that we were moving with strong kicks without interruptions. Work load is very important factor too.
