I was looking at the listed benefits of merino lined wetsuits and I kept reading that the merino lining would trap water which your body heat would warm up and reduce heat loss after the trapped water had reached an equilibrium.
I'm curious if it is standard practice to pre-flood the merino lining before a dive so your body has a chance to warm the water up before going into the water. Or maybe use a thermos of warm water to pre-flood it?
