Best way to put on wet wetsuit

[Damselfish]

Most liveaboards also frown on you going inside in a wetsuit. Too much of that stinks up the place.

I dive in a 1mm neoprene skin, my solution is to take 2 so one is always pretty much dry. Not that a damp 1mm is so hard to get on, I actually find it easier than damp lycra, but getting into something dry is always easier and more pleasant. You might not be able to fit 2-3mm suits in your bag, but you could take 2 lycra skins and always have a dry one of those.

Which liveaboard are you going on?

If you need more lubrication than baby shampoo provides you can try "Duck Butter Binding Lubricant." It is 100% biodegradable and used to get your foot into the tight rubber pocket of wakeboard boots. Works great! If you put a little on your hips you will probably end up with an atomic wedgie.

Um, I don't think it would be very comfortable to leave a wetsuit on for 10 straight days. Sounds like some kind of David Blaine stunt.

When I'm on an extended trip to the tropics with multiple dives per day, I almost always leave my 3mm wetsuit on throughout the day. Sometimes I remove the upper part and put on a shirt between dives. Of course I usually take the wetsuit off before I go to bed (but not always).

As others have posted, "roll" it on starting at the ankles and working up.
