Hi
Just wondering is it a bad idea to put my wetsuit in the dryer?
Have heard that it shortens the life of your wetsuit but i would prefere it to be dry when using it this weekend.
Any advice before I do it?

do not put your wet suit in the dryer it could melt. just hang it up as soon as possible and usually it will dry over night. i have hooks in the ceiling over the bath especialy for this purpose.

Yeah, if you want it dry, turn it inside out so the inside dries first :D

I simply take two wetsuits with me on trips so I get to wear a dry one every day ;)

I have had it hanging in the shower overnight but its a 5ml so it takes ages to dry.
I wont go for the dryer option then!

if i think my wet suit isn going to dry its self over night i some times put it in the washing machine of a cold rinse with a fast spin before hanging it up this squeezes quite alot of the water out.. also my wetsuit is 8mm in places and almost always drys out overnight.
