Hey Bald1,

When I wear my LS drytop all is right. I'm cheap so I balked at the SS splash guard all summer (the $130 clams for a new spray skirt was enough new gear for me) and generally the Potomac river in the summer is pretty muggy. I too recognize that I may be getting water down my back and chest between my rash guard and tunnel and this in fact may happen to some degree in any top.

I tried it on again last night and I have good contact throughout most of the tunnel. I'm not sure how to tell if the tunnel lines up with the seat, but I've the seat in the stock/middle position on my recoil.

I am hesitant to chop my tunnel, but it just seems that I'm always pulling it up and figured my IR Shockwave didn't slouch, why should this one. My tunnel slouches to just below my ribcage after a short while, but when I first put it on it easily goes up to my, well, nipples. (can I say that here?) ha. My hips to chest are a pretty straight line, little contour. Thanks for your comments. BT community is great.
