Above 65°F (18°C): A 2/1 to 3/2 mm wetsuit is usually sufficient. 59°F to 64°F (15°C to 18°C): Opt for a 3/2 to 4/3 mm wetsuit. 52°F to 58°F (11°C to 14°C): A 4/3 to 5/4/3 mm wetsuit is ...
An average person has a surface area of about 2 m 2, [14] so the uncompressed volume of a full one piece 6 mm thick wetsuit will be in the order of 1.75 x 0.006 = 0.0105 m 3, or roughly 10 liters. The mass will depend on the specific formulation of the foam, but will probably be in the order of 4 kg, for a net buoyancy of about 6 kg at the surface.
Subsequently, the new ruling states that men's swimsuits may maximally cover the area from the navel to the knee, and women's counterparts from the shoulder to the knee. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] Some swimmers use a specialized training suit called drag suits to artificially increase drag during practice.
