My DH ordered me an early anniversary present today!!

Our use of special 3mm neoprene panels in the lower leg allow for an easy on and easy off fit and quick transition times. The Tsunami is fast in the water and on the land.

253 System
Our system of varying neoprene thickness putting the thicker neoprene where flotation is key to optimize body position and using thinner neoprene where flexibility and range of motion is most important.

Now I have no excuse not to get in some open water swim practice!

Pretty....don't pee in it........

Just kidding....

[colby]

Way cool! When do you get to hold it in your hands?

[Tri Girl]

Ooooooo- it's so pretty....

[KSH]

Very pretty! Now, are you sure it fits? Have you tried it on before? Also, keep in mind that things also change when it hits the water.

I know for me... I was very excited when I ordered my FIRST wetsuit. It came, I tried it on... and it was way too small. I never got it all the way on.

Ordered my SECOND wetsuit... tried it on... it fit! Got in the water... WOAH! Too big.

Ordered my THIRD wetsuit... tried it on... very tight. Got in the water... too small. My shoulders were fatigued after 100 yards.

Ordered my FOURTH wetsuit... it was HUGE. No way I could keep it.

Now, in my car... I have my FIFTH and SIXTH wetsuits waiting for me to try on and swim in tonight.

I never would have thought in a million years that I wouldn't just be able to pick out a wetsuit and keep it.

I hope your wesuit fits the first time out! Let us know how it goes.

I'm not sure, yet when it will get here. It's still processing.

As for fit, I've already got a dialogue going with the store regarding trying it on and a possible exchange if it doesn't fit. I've got my fingers crossed that it fits though!


So...to test it out in the water, is it necessary to try it out in a lake, or some other big natural water body, or can I hop into the pool at my apartment and swim some laps? I know chlorine isn't good for wetsuits so I'm not sure

Well, the place I bought all my wetsuits from said I could have one test swim. Never said if it had to be in a pool or lake.

I went to a pool. Honestly, I was in the water for a short amount of time... the wetsuit didn't even lose it's new smell after being rinsed off.

Good luck, I hope it fits perfectly!
