Vertical suit options - hidden spandex

[dguv22 0]

I'm looking to purchase a viper suit and I was reading through the forums and I have a pretty good idea of which options to get. however, I can find almost no information on the utility or benefit of the hidden wrist/ankle cuff option that vertical offers. I can see the aesthetic appeal, they look nicer I suppose and I'm leaning towards including those options in my order.

I was wondering if there is anything (due to my very minimal experience) that I haven't considered or if there is a downside to the hidden wrist/ankle cuff spandex?

This is my first suit.

Thanks in advance for any feedback,
Guv

I have the hidden wrist and ankle cuff spandex on my Vertical suit and I really like it. No downside for me but I could imagine if you were using an analog alti where the strap goes way up your wrist the spandex may get in the way. I wear a Neptune with a wrist strap (no finger loop) and have had no issues. Would order it that way again.
