Have my first oly tri on sat, was pulling on my wetsuit for an easy ocean swimm…RIPPPPPPPP!!! couple inches long, right in the leg.
I’m not close to any stores that sell the wetsuit glue, is there anything else that would work? Or should I just swim with the tear?
thanks
I used rubber cement from a tube patching kit on a small tear on mine. Worked great. I don’t know how well it would work on a larger tear, though - might need some kind of stitching.
A couple inches long should be fixed with more than just wetsuit glue. You may need some seam tape and possibly a few stitches. But of course without seeing it it is hard to say. But if you live near an ocean to do ocean swim there have to be some surf shops in your area were you can get your suit touched up. What kind of suit is it and where did you buy it?
Cheers,

now that I’ve calmed down a little…
It’s slightly longer than an inch.
Orca speedsuit, bought it on ebay from some wetsuit dealers. (Until now, was really proud of the deal I got)
