When leaving hanging, do you hang your long johns from the shoulders or have it slung over from the middle? I just got a polosub suit and since theres no nylon on the inside or outside, i dont quite feel comfortable hanging it from the shoulders. But then again ive never been a fan of hanging from the middle
I just sling mine over the middle but I also rotate it during drying so it's not sitting on one point for the whole duration. What you can do is alternatively use a drying rack, the biggest thing for open cell/smoothskin combos is to keep it out of direct sunlight as that can very easily deteriorate them
In Complete agreement re. avoiding UV rays from open sunshine. I hang mine on a cloth horse (drying rack) indoors or out at the back on a wide spread rotary airer (some sort of an "umbrella" contraption) but only when it's cloudy - which here in Ireland is ... most of the time
You're forgot the baby powder . You have to massage it from the inside with a little bit of baby powder .So that the suit does not stick to the inside. I really recommended
definitely good idea for long term storage. i mainly just focus on getting it very dry inside before storing and if i have the place leaving it in a sealed box with silica packs haven't had an issue yet
@@Jackhatfieldfreediver In the past years, I remember that I bought a Polo Sub smooth skin spearfishing wetsuit, the thickness of the suit was 7 mm. When summer approached, I washed it and cleaned it like you did, dried it well, and stored it like you said. When the winter come again, I took it out and found it stuck on the inside. The suit was completely damaged from the inside and was no longer usable, so I threw it away, and it was a great loss for me. An old-school spearo advised me to use baby powder and since then I have not had any problems at all
Ah that sucks, especially when you are usually only pulling the suit out of storage when you need it to find damage. Might add a few notes about it for some additional advice, as I said never had it happen for mine and I'm usually storing my winter gear for 7-8 months
