Hi,
I am thinking of investing in a wetsuit. Any wisdom out there? What style is the best...long, short, sleeves, no sleeves. Where is the best place to find one? Does wearing a wetsuit significantly improve your time?
Last year I did the 1 mile swim in the Chesapeake Bay. Most people had wetsuits. The water temperature was 72 degrees, and I was not cold at all even though I did not have a wetsuit.
Any thoughts?

Well I bought the new FS Pro or whatever Speedo calls the latest fastskin and don't like it at all. Chafing under the arms in the pool at around 3 miles and distinctly colder both in and especially out of the water. It also seems to trap sweat somewhat, but your skin remains cold, which is an uncomfortable sensation. Anyone want to buy a bodysuit?
