How To Swim In An Open Water Swimming Wetsuit

In this video we explain how to swim in a wetsuit. Swimming in a wetsuit isn’t very different from swimming without one, but if you have never worn a wetsuit before, it will take some getting used to. There are common concerns or misconceptions about swimming in a wetsuit - often they are seen as restrictive, uncomfortable or for wimps! Modern wetsuits are not only a brilliant piece of kit they are also for every kind of swimmer and many open water swimmers wear wetsuits for events, long distance swims, to keep warm or to help them swim faster.
