Perfect for triathlon!

I just finished my first ocean triathlon and it worked great! I trained with it in a lake with fairly cold water (60-65 degrees) and it kept me warm enough even though my feet and hands were really cold after a 40 minute swim. I'm 5ft 6" and 140lbs and I ordered a women's size W1. I have a long torso compared to my legs which are wider than average and it takes a bit of time and effort to get it to my waist but overall it fits perfectly! I don't think a smaller size would fit me and a larger size would be too big. Shape and fit very good. Also, when I first put it on, I didn't have the right position in my shoulders and it felt tight with arm movements while swimming. After that first time, I learned to put it on better by pulling myself up just enough so that there is no tightness in the shoulders until I no longer feel the restricted movement when swimming! Even dinner is easy to lose weight. I was able to shorten my transition time by donning my wetsuit in less than 20 seconds.
