Henley 1 Posted June 28, 2013 Share My Zoot Fuzion served me well, but it is approaching retirement now. What “brand and model” wetsuit will provide the most buoyancy from hips to feet – for a swimmer with sinking legs? Where do I buy that in Gauteng.Thanx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kritzie Posted June 28, 2013 Share Most buoyant definately a tractor tube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jigghead Posted June 28, 2013 Share Most buoyant definately a tractor tube. If his legs are sinking, you may find that the tractor tube is around the waist :whistling: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I strugled with "sinking legs" as well until I made some corrections to my technique. Do you have a weak kick? if so, again, check out TI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlinkFan Posted June 28, 2013 Share My Xterra Vortex suit feels pretty buoyant. This thicker panels in the front of the chest and legs feel like they do the job really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain K'nuckles Posted June 28, 2013 Share On diving. My wife and I are going to Mauritius end August. Never dived before. Worth getting into? Worth spending the money on lessons here in JHB? Or will snorkeling suffice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Zone Posted June 28, 2013 Share The 2XU suits are pretty good, I think cyclelab sells them. On sinking legs this is a technique issue that you really need to sort out. Swimming in a suit to address this issue is like riding on training wheels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
