I had a rule I tried to follow, never train in water below 60. I broke this rule when I lived in Northern Quebec, I would train in the La Bostinnais River and Lac St Louis the day the ice went out which was about April 15th.<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/266506?ContentTypeID=1Sun, 01 Nov 2009 11:34:51 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:5213ca47-f12d-4a5a-900a-68785170da18Former MemberWet suit for Florida for warmth???<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/266549?ContentTypeID=1Sun, 01 Nov 2009 08:28:34 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:c0eaeaf8-d538-4aac-bb0f-52bcba2567f0srcoyote65 is ideal for me. But if that&#39;s too cold for you, I do recommend starting w/ something like a Blue Seventy that does minimal heat trapping. When I jump in 65 degree water I curse. . . loudly. After a few minutes, it feels good. When I jump in 85 degree water, I say &quot;aaahhh&quot;. Then within a few minutes of swimming I curse because I&#39;m burning up.<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/266449?ContentTypeID=1Sat, 31 Oct 2009 10:40:44 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:4d615914-bcdf-4279-a521-4b6d23261cc2Former Member65 degrees is not bad for many, though some folks are cold in 80. ask 10 swimmers and you will get 10 different opinions of what &quot;cold water&quot; is.... therefore; i would recommend you should start with the minimum of heat trapping suits, and take it from there. you might find 65 to be just fine after a 5 minute adjustment period in just a brief (also, you will look less like shark food)<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/266408?ContentTypeID=1Sat, 31 Oct 2009 09:55:40 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:9e62106c-d164-4c67-b8b7-c18d7b64ff78Former MemberI&#39;m actually interested in what would be good to keep me warm in those temperature waters, would i need a full wetsuit, john, core type trisuit or something similar? I&#39;m not familiar with these temps here.
