Attn: Aqua Lung Public Safety Dealers
Did you know the Aqua Lung Enviro Hybrid drysuit offers public safety teams the best of the Hazmat and Enviro combined into one suit?
The Enviro Hybrid is made from the bottom half of a Hazmat drysuit, which makes it highly durable for crawling on knees and sliding on seat of the suit. The top half is made from Enviro material and offers superior range of motion and comfort where it’s needed most. This combination is why many teams think it is the best of both worlds wrapped into one suit, including the FBI who outfitted their four regional Underwater Search and Evidence Response Teams (USERT) with the Enviro Hybrid.
Standard features:
Wrist rings for dry gloves and EZ cuff replacement

ERDI Prep Dry Suit / Full Face Mask
In ERDI students learn to wear drysuits and use full face masks. We recommend ERD Prep class because the waters that we dive in are considered contaminated. On the black water day final practical (usually at a forest preserve lake). We use this environment to train divers in real life scenarios. This prepares the diver to enter into the PSD Team roster without additional training or orientation.
The prep class curriculum is taken from ERD II, where advance training gives you these skills and more. To protect our divers and error on the side of safety we offer this class in preparation for ERDI
