I've been here so long I don't really think anything of it :-)

PDP.

It's as hot as a very hot place in NL the last few days, so I've been up even earlier to stay work while it's still cool(ish), and finishing around noon.

So I'm done now, and debating if I go swim in the lake or just lie in the shade in my own garden.

I'm off to the lake shortly. On which note...

Question for the OWSwimmers - anyone found their wetsuits are sticky? on the outside? Despite being a triathlon specific wetsuit it's always been a bugger to remove, leading to some comedically long transitions and sitting on my bum trying to get it off - the outside seems to stick to itself while I try to peel it off. It's been annoying me for some time, and last swim I thought, OK, let's whack some of the trilube stuff (using the Huub Luub at the mo) on the OUTSIDE of the arms and legs (have been using a fair bit on my skin already) - and it wasn't any better. Previous wetsuits have not done this...

Can't say I've ever noticed. Has it always done that?

I have a feeling that mine has now stuck to itself but that's because I haven't got it out of the bag it's been stuffed into for several years (since at least 2020.) I think I assumed the neoprene was degrading.

Do you hang yours up when not in use JC, and rinse it off when you've taken it off?

That’s not good JC. I’ve had it happen with rubberised parts of camera housings.
