We often get asked by novice triathletes how they can best spend their money when getting into the sport. It is an expensive sport and triathletes are notorious for buying all the new gadgets to find those extra few seconds. But how about your wetsuit? Is it worth buying a new, well fitted suit with the correct buoyancy for you? We put it to the test as Caroline swam against the clock in her Orca Apex Float against an old and ill fitting suit. She was shocked by how exhausted she was swimming in the old suit! We often see people at races who are in watersports wetsuits, or suits that are too big for them. If this is you then watch to find out not only how much time you might loose in the water but how it could impact the rest of your race.
