: OS sells a piece of plastic tubing that is like a clear heavy duty garden
: hose that goes around your neck. You trim the hose to be the same size as
: your neck and roll the dry suit seal up over it. The ring holds the seal
: off your neck.

Thanks for bringing up neck rings, Woody. I tried to make one several years
ago, but the tubing I used was not stout enough. I saw the one OS makes for
sale on their website and intend to buy one.

OS Systems say this; "Neck Ring -Ventilate while out of the water."

Has anyone tried one of these?
