I got a great deal on a Fall Aqua Sphere Swim Skin, which has 5. mm neoprene and lycra panels...I plan to train in Lake Michigan in Chicago, but I am worried that this suit may not be suitable for my training and the Accenture Tri in August. It's supposed to be good for temps from 60 to 70 degrees...The lycra in the shoulders, arms and inside of the legs might make it really flexible...Don't know what to do...Should I get a 3 mm triathlon suit like the ones from Orca, etc?
