Ok - someone told me that I was crazy to get a long sleeve full wetsuit for Arizona.  Is that true?

I got a full sleeve one because everyone told me it'd help me float. I am not good at floating.

Well I have never worn a sleeveless suit and like my full sleeve.   So, I don't know anything but if you go to the races, I think you'll see about 80% of all the wetsuits are full sleeves.  That should tell you something.

Whew! Thanks! I want to float too, so that is why I grabbed a full sleeve one.

Full sleeve wetsuits are faster. There are some people who just don't like having
stuff on their arms in the swim, so it's a comfort thing for them.

You'll be fine in a full sleeve.
