Vasoline..help or worthless in 48-50F water

applying a thin coat of vasoline to the core + arms is messy i'm sure, but does it help when wearing a wetsuit??

    I'm no wetsuit expert but I believe most manufacturers recommend NOT using any petroleum products on the suit. Try Suitjuice or just make your own soap and water mixture. Plus, when you remove your suit, your skin will be silky smooth and you'll feel clean and fresh as a daisy. :agree: Jeffy is right. Vaseline with dissolve you wetsuit. I use BodyGlide for long OW swims.
