Surfing wetsuits and triathlon wetsuits.?
Question:What are the differences between wetuits of different types.like is the wetsuit that is used in surfing different from that used in stuff like triathlons?
Because I am having a tough time getting a wetsuit where I'm at and the only ones available are the ones from a shop which sells mostly surf-wear.
Thanks a lot.
[Please no simple yes or no answers.]
Answers:
hello, hello, I'm not a wetsuit person, so just providing a 2-cents worth of knowledge, Wetsuits from what I feel is to provide thermal protection as well as bouancy to the user. And all these varies from the materal and the thickness of the wetsuit for different purposes; ranging from diving,surfing and open water-swimming
what is a wetsuit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/wetsuit...
Just like: can I use a roadbike for a triathlon or probably a more contrast; a MTB for a triathlon, Yes! Just that that particular bike may not be the best equipment for the job. Likewise my reply: can surf suits be use for triathlon? Yes, I've seen someone at IMWA doing that.. But of course, I'd not advise you to do that.
This is a good read: Choosing a wetsuit: http://www.bikesportmichigan.com/feature...
Sales of wetsuits are quite limited and expensive in singapore. Orcas are available from BikeHaus, QR from Treknology & T3 just to name a few and the price ranges from S$400 to S$950. Quite a big deal if you're just using it for A race. Check out www.triathlonfamily/forum for 2nd hand sales or rent it from synergy. Also race expo may have a better deal depending on the sponsorship of the event.
Cheers.

Is this what you wanted?
The 400 meter tear, the 200 meter dash, the 100 meter bit, the discus (its where you throw a disc close to object) shotput (you throw a 8 or 10 pound ball) the mile run, the 2 mile run, the high hurdle (you jump over a bar), the long go underwater (you run and then hop they have a run skip hop rear too) they have the 200 meter relay see where 4 ancestors run and had a rod, and they have the 400 meter relay see where they enjoy 4 people run and paw of a baton, and i deduce they might have a 800 meter relay see where they hold 4 people run and foot off a stick
you have sprints which are 100m 200m middle distance-400m 800m 1500m.
