Review on Synergy Endorphin Sleeveless Quick John: Ideal Men's Triathlon Wetsuit for Open Water Swimming Ironman & USAT Approved by Andy Kucrud

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good for water temperatures 5-8 degrees below normal, irregular fit, narrow neckline

This suit gets 3 stars for its main function: to warm the upper body. That's the only good part. The fit is odd. I would not recommend the L1 to anyone over 6ft. I would also recommend a maximum of around 175 yards at 5ft 10”. It's not just that I'm on the heavy side for the size class, but my neck was really rubbing against me when I was swimming. I swam about 2500 yards, 1600 yards. Punches (clock hand) and it started to annoy me about halfway through, and towards the end it actually hurt right where Spock pinches the Vulcan. Weight. That wetsuit stinks to high heaven too. I have to keep it in the garage. I've had many dive and surf wetsuits, this is the first that I haven't been able to keep in the garage. I will try to continue using it, but I would not buy it again, I have no choice but to get Vaseline to rub it in.

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Weight
