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?
First off, I defer to chaos on all matters ow as he is one of the experts in the field. He's also a nice guy who brings me beer and gifts, and I'm easily swayed by swag.
I like my wetsuit, like it a lot. I can wear it for about 6-8 weeks annually early in the Spring. It allows me to swim farther, probably because it makes swimming easier. When my goal at first is to go a few hours it helps to have the suit on. Then, when the water turns to stew temperature I dump the thing.
