Nikolaas Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 anyone know where one can hire a wetsuit in East Londen.need one for the half iron man, only doing it once, don't want to buy one.
rudi-h Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 not sure if this is an item that's generally up for hire... they are easy to tear, difficult to find your fit and 90% of people will pee in it during the course of a 1.9km swim... not something that I'd consider renting

JGR Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 Terry from Xterra rents wetsuits - he is on the hub or try calling him. They also piss in the pool you train in ....
Patchelicious Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 I can rent you one, Aquashere Ironman, ML, used once. Once off payment of R2500 and you can keep it afterwards. Paid R4500 new for it.

mon-goose Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 what size suit ar4e you looking for Nikolaas? I've got a mens size 6 orca suit that you can rent for R800 and keep afterwards
reteid Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 I would suggest you swim a few times in the wet suite before the race.Blue smooth and x terra both have rental suites as far as I know.
davem Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Buy one. 2nd hand. Use it. Sell it. Will cost you less.
Jigghead Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Call Terry (Xterra SA) on 079 482 4658 He's awesome, he's situated in Cape Town but will courier the item to you. I was not sure of my size the first time and he sent me two to try on and charged for one rental. I think he has/had a system that if you liked the suit and wanted to buy it, he'd take the rental off the purchase price. He paid for shipping both delivery and collection and arranged to have the wet suits collected when it was convenient for me. Both suits he sent me were brand new BTW I cannot sing this guy and his company's praises enough, they are the bomb!
