Just wanted to see how everybody shaves for meets or not?I heard different things on shaving:some shave legs and arms only, some -the entire body, some shave it with cream, some just get the body wet without cream, some shave DRY(CRAZY)!!!Supposedly the last helps get rid of some dead skin which gives you a much better feel for the water.Or, and another one I do not get:some shave even if they wear a body suit -what's up with that?
Well, I would like to hear about your experiences, how it feels to swim shaved and if it helped you to shave your time off too ...
Thanks.

If you are going to spend a lot of money on a suit then you should shave. If hair sticks through the suit then this will disturb the air patern on the suit, therefore changing the water flow around your body. Remeber these suits are tested on shaved bodies.
However if you are wearing it because of comfort and self image then you won't feel any difference.
I have done and do agree with full body shaving if wearing normal bathers. One word of advise for the guys. DON'T WAX. It hurts soooo much.
