Wetsuit question
Ok - someone told me that I was crazy to get a long sleeve full wetsuit for Arizona. Is that true?

RE: Wetsuit question
I got a full sleeve one because everyone told me it'd help me float. I am not good at floating.

RE: Wetsuit question
Well I have never worn a sleeveless suit and like my full sleeve. So, I don't know anything but if you go to the races, I think you'll see about 80% of all the wetsuits are full sleeves. That should tell you something.

Whew! Thanks! I want to float too, so that is why I grabbed a full sleeve one.

Full sleeve wetsuits are faster. There are some people who just don't like having
stuff on their arms in the swim, so it's a comfort thing for them.
You'll be fine in a full sleeve.
