15% OFF Wetsuits for Kenmare Tri Members

Hi All,

I am placing the dive centres main order for wetsuits and other neoprene products for the season at the end of this week with Camaro in Austria. As many of you know, i have been retailing and using their products in the centre for over 10 years now and they are at the higher end of the quality spectrum.
Having said this their prices have also reflected the quality of their suits. However, each year there are still many people who choose to pay a little above the norm for great attention to detail and very high quality.

With this in mind and the current economic gloom i thought i would offer a 15% discount to anyone on the mailing list who wants to order something at the same time as me. To see their range of products go to www.camaro.at they not only do diving suits but also surfing, kayaking, sailing, triathlon and open water swimming suits.

Please get back to me for prices on any products you are interested in and i will get back to you asap. as my order will be placed on Friday and after that its normal retail prices again.

Paul Tanner
