Swimming with only a T1 bottom?

Triathlon Forum

Has anyone swam with just the bottom part of the two piece T1 wetsuit?
How was it?

I will be swimming in water that is warm enough for NO wetsuit, in a tri that has multiple swim legs and so I would need to put on and take off my wetsuit with the clock ticking, more than once. Swimming is not the best of the three sports for me.

I think that maybe a full might be too hot, plus the on and off times may prove to be a very critical factor in the overall scheme of things.

Thanks

I’ve done it, many times. Works just fine.

If you really need the flotation try a SpeedTube; it would be much easier to get on in the chaos of a race.

Have you ever tried getting a wetsuit, even the T1 bottom on a wet/sweaty body?
