Tried my new wetsuit out at the Y. Water temp around 80. Works very well, but too
warm to do much of a workout. Question: What water temp would be the line for wetsuit
or no wetsuit? Is there a temp set by the event?
nothing, until one learns to swim without them..........
So its like riding a bike with training wheels? Or is it a purist kind of thing?
The coldest water I've swum in was probably somewhere in the mid 70's. After a couple hundered meters I ended up liking the 'coldness' of it. But I'm a very lean guy - 5% body fat or so. It seems like I'd actually NEED a wesuit in cold water.
