TDS Quebec Drysuit

The TDS Quebec drysuit, together with its twin, the Norway, makes up the compressed neoprene line of TDS drysuits.

The Quebec model features a boot with a very light, stiff sole, a characteristic that makes it highly appreciated even by professional and commercial divers for their work. It also has a large pocket and flexible knee pads for protection.

Compressed Neoprene:

The wetsuit is made of 4 mm compressed foam neoprene, laminated on both sides with nylon fabric. Compressed foam neoprene is very dense and has the advantage of resisting compression at great depths. Thus, the suit retains much of its surface buoyancy and requires less air intake to maintain neutral buoyancy; it also provides greater thermal efficiency at greater depths. Unlike trilaminate suits, neoprene offers thermal protection and inherent buoyancy; furthermore, it usually requires less additional insulation under the suit in all circumstances compared to trilaminate.

Boot:

Boots with an integrated rigid sole, with rubber reinforcement for the fin foot pocket and ankle straps with Velcro to adjust the ankle and prevent the foot from slipping out and air from reaching the feet during changes in posture.

Zipper:

Equipped with a waterproof zipper positioned horizontally across the shoulders to allow entry into the drysuit. Ask your partner to place a finger directly in front of the slider while closing it to keep undergarments or other items away from the zipper teeth. Also, ensure your partner correctly positions the inner flap of the zipper before closing it.

Neoprene Sleeves:

The sleeves are made of ultra-flexible neoprene for easy donning and improved water-tightness.

Hood:

The included hood features waterproof seals for the face and neck.

Carry Bag:

Supplied in a carry bag. Its flat design allows it to be opened and used as a changing mat to keep your feet clean while putting on or taking off the suit. The bag contains a zipper lubricant.

Flexible Knee Pads:

Reinforcement in the knee area made of flexible material, giving the suit lightness and freedom of movement, and protecting an area prone to frequent rubbing.

Integrated Pocket:

Large pocket on the left leg with an easily accessible zipper and drain holes to prevent water trapping inside.

Si-Tech Valves:

The TDS Norway drysuit is equipped with the Si-Tech Low Profile valve system, the most reliable, proven, and widely used system globally.

Shell Inflation Valve:

360-degree swivel system for optimal placement of the inflation hose.
Variable flow rate, controlled by manual pressure.
The low-profile back plate reduces bulk and increases comfort.
Located in the center of the chest.

Argo Exhaust Valve:

Fully adjustable air exhaust pressure with manual lock.
High flow rate
Low profile with smooth contours to prevent the vest from snagging when putting it on.
The low-profile back plate reduces bulk and increases comfort.
