Scuba Gear Reviews by Maggi Perl

Wasnt planning to buy this suit but wound up getting it so my wetsuit would go on easier. Used it to swim in my pond before the temperatures were cold enough for a wetsuit and it does help make cold water more comfortable. May not be a necessity at all but it is a nice extra. maggi perl

I got this wetsuit for some winter swimming in my pond in WV. I wanted to get an XL which is what seemed best going by the size chart. Reviews mentioned that sales people were very helpful on size so I let the salesman talk me into a L. Wrong! Had to send it back and get an XL so the size chart was accurate. It is Halloween and the temperature is 50 degrees and the pond water is cold. I was very comfortable swimming a mile. The legs kept my feet up very high until I used a set of ankle weights that helped a whole lot. Swimming in this suit at this time of year is very enjoyable and hopefully I will be able to swim in much colder temperatures. Thanks! maggi perl
