If you're new to triathlon, or specifically wearing a triathlon wetsuit, help is here! Seasoned Ironman athlete Andrew Starykowicz is here to show you step by step how to put on a wetsuit to make sure you have a great fit every time! In this video he covers:

1. Sliding on the legs and pulling the crotch of the suit as high as possible. You can use the plastic booties provided with your Orca wetsuit, or just a plastic bag to make the suit slide easier up your legs.

2. Pulling on the sleeves and drawing them right up on to your shoulders so you have full and unrestricted range of movement.

3. Zipping up yourself, or with a friend's help and attaching the dangling end of the strap to your neck velcro.

Enjoy!

How to measure yourself

For best results, take your measurements with no clothing on

Place the measuring tape over the widest part of your chest.

Hold one end of the measuring tape in place and circle your chest, keeping the tape straight, until the tape reaches your starting point.

Get a book, a hand mirror and a pencil.

Take off your shoes and anything you wear on your head.

Look for a level surface to stand on with a smooth wall behind you.

Stand in front of the wall with your feet together.

Balance the book on your head and press it against the wall. Use the mirror to check that it is in a horizontal position and well centered. Mark the position of the top of your head on the wall with pencil.

Once the mark is made, step away and use a measuring tape to measure the distance from the ground to the mark you just made with pencil.

Step on the scale, without clothes or accessories, and write down your weight.
