A drysuit keeps you warm by adding a second air space you have to manage. We teach it the way we teach buoyancy: weighting first, then inflating and venting in every position, then recovering from the two classic problems, feet-up and a stuck inflator. You leave able to dive the Adriatic in winter, when the water is at its clearest.
