History of triathlon wetsuit

Big nod to Slowman Dan and his contributions to the triathlon wettie on TriHistory.com

Nice article.
I remember when Dan brought some of his first suits to the pool and I thought there was no way they would be faster - reflecting on my use of dive, surf and waterski wetsuits.
I think I bet him something they wouldn’t be faster; don’t remember what.
I lost that bet when he had me try one on and I turned some fairly easy sub :55 100’s.

Good article, im wondering what are the other parties claiming to be the ‘first’ ?
