Easily noticed and avoided. Just like jellies.

I have a few friends who dive in shorts & Ts, but I like full body protection against floaties as well as my own blunders. Growing new skin can take so long, with the weeks of itching, and that's when things go well. Love my 1 mil long suit and nylon socks that also make it easier to get the suit on.
Full suit for me. Can't avoid all the little stingy thingies. As it is, I've often experienced the zots on my face, lips and back of hands.. the only way to avoid all the hydroids is to stay in the boat.

And you have to have something to “not” pee in!

Without a wet suit on it feels like you are just peeing in your pants.
And you know that because?

I start peeing on the backroll.
Probably from a combination of sitting on the bouncing gunwale and turning upside down. That and breakfast coffee working its way through the system.
