Choosing a Triathlon Wetsuit
Originally, the wetsuit was introduced to the sport of triathlon as a safety tool to help the triathlete survive cold waters and prevent hypothermia during the swim portion of a race. However, it was soon discovered that the wetsuit provided the necessary buoyancy to lift a swimmer high enough in the water to enhance the overall swimming performance. Since then, wetsuits have been an important piece of triathlon equipment. The article suggests taking your geographic location into consideration when purchasing a wetsuit, as wetsuits can leave you dehydrated in warmer waters.
