Do I Need A Wetsuit For Open Water Swimming?
Переглядів 1,8 тис.3 місяці тому
One of the most common questions we get asked at Outdoor Swimmer is, "do I need a wetsuit?" Outdoor swimming can be fun, spontaneous and done with very little kit. If you find a swim spot remote enough, you might not need any swimwear! But, for longer, more adventurous swims or events, a wetsuit is an excellent piece of kit. A wetsuit is ultimately designed to provide thermal protection when yo...

    I like the breastroke because less pressure in the shoulders. What is the maximum distance a swimmer can do in this style? It is suitable for long distance open water swimming?

    I love this video, also I have the same wetsuit wich is fantastic for breast stroke since it takes away neoprene from the legs to allow more movement whilst reducing buoyancy so that you can make the kick. Looks cool as well.

    I think the silver should be woven into the swimsuit as opposed to being a separate lining then it wouldn't balloon when you first get in.

    The thermal lining is really good. The only let down is that the swim suits do not have any cups or bust support, and therefore tend to flatten your breast and at size 22 it is not the prettiest sight 🙃. Lovely and colourful fabric.

    My main issue with breast stroke, which I love, is that it gives me knee, back and neck problems (and I think that's fairly common) so I'd be interested in a video which addresses that, although I'll certainly take on board keeping my elbows in, as I thought that looked as if it might be the key.

    Amazing product placement for Zone 3. Congratulations on the ‘infomercial’ ps. Zone 3 products are hit or miss affairs and the wetsuits tend to tear themselves apart under the arms.

    I much prefer breaststroke in open water. I feel safer seeing where I am going, seeing other river users, seeing the wildlife …and the occasional floating log! It doesn’t get the love or attention it should - more tips and advice please, I’m bored of the obsession with front crawl. Also, I have this wetsuit and it’s fab! Thanks 👍

    Hi, I've been following you for a long time and everything in your videos has always been spectacular. The sessions are great, the quality is fantastic... this channel is absolutely brilliant and you helped me a lot with the majority of my curiosities about swimming, thank you so much. Anyway, I would like to make a suggestion (if it's not a problem): I'm convinced that you can add a really funny video on your channel to show us some of the funniest things happened while swimming, something like a "oops and bloopers" compilation. For example, you could make a compilation of all of the times where some swimmers get "caught" on video while peeing in the water. Once, before a swimming race in the sea, my uncle said "the sea is calling me to let me pee in it, I must go now" and that was hilarious, so funny, he always tells me there are 2 types of divers and swimmers: those who pee in the water and those who lie, you can also include those moments in the future videos just to keep having a bit of humor on your channel, you can use both old and new clips, what do you think? I know it sounds weird, but, for me, it's the funniest thing about and swimmers. When a swimmer pees in the water or even in the pool, I think he demonstrates to be someone who is not afraid of consequences or to be judged. I think it's something that can come out great! I'd be so so happy to watch it, let me know, have a great day!
