“I got the Glide Short John Wetsuit. Bottom line, it worked and I am now an Ironman! Whatever concerns I had before, it was probably because I am new to wetsuits. Needless to say, I finished my IM swim faster than my expected time. Initially, when I was dry fitting it, I thought that it was too tight especially at the thighs and I also felt that my breathing was a tiny bit restricted. I was concerned about ripping it and restriction on the blood flow in my thighs! (I think I have larger thighs than people who would use the wetsuuit size I have.) I contacted support and asked if they have a video of someone putting in on so I can get an idea of how it is to put it on. There was none but I was advised that based on my size, it is the right fit, or I can go one size up to get a more comfortable swim. Support and the website both encourage customers to swim in it to figure it out. So I did and it worked out. Did a second and last practice swim before my IM event and it still worked (still had the same tightness)”
