Welcome to Wild Wimmin the Wild Swimming Podcast - I'm Laura Macdonald.
Today I am here to fill your ears with all the hints and tips you could possibly need about wetsuits! Yes, clear out the kit bags, it's a neoprene fiesta! Where does it come from? Is it a total planet killer? Why does it tear so easily? How should we look after it, dry it and repair it? how should it actually fit? All your kit questions were answered by the wetsuit repair expert Gary Chambers from Bodyline wetsuits in Newquay.
Yes one for the wetsuited, gloved and booted amongst us - which at this time of year is pretty much everyone.
