Another wetsuit question

How much time do you need to get comfortable in a wetsuit? Have a swim coming up (66-67 degrees) that will now allow them. Don't wanna give up any potential advantages, but I've never swam in one and don't wanna screwup my stroke. I've got several people to borrow one from so that isn't a problem, a custom fit would be.

    As one who hates being cold I am reluctant to respond. 67 isn't very terribly cold, for me. Are you wearing the wetsuit for speed or warmth? If speed, spend money, you will swim faster, and, your stroke will feel like it's screwed up. If for warmth, buy a surfing wetsuit. That way you can pick up a new sport too.
