Subject: First Wetsuit, First Swim!? Got my first wetsuit for Christmas and can't wait to take it out on a maiden voyage. My question is, what temperature would make it feasible to get in a good training swim? I understand the relative nature of my question. The swimsuit is sleeveless. I have no desire to purchase a cap, booties, or other additional equipment. Also, I'm not interested in joining the polar bear club and don't really care about the coldest water everyone has swam in (I take plenty of ice baths anyway). Just looking to know what a reasonable temperature would be for a sleeveless. Lastly, I'm sure this question pops up every year around this time and for that I apologize. I'll answer all such related questions as penance through the spring! Thanks for your help! |
