How important is Body Glide for taking off your wetsuit coming into T1? I've never done a swim with a suit so I'm not exactly sure how I would prep for this. Should I just rent one and take it to a pool to try it out for fit 2 weeks before event? Putting body glide on, stick for the legs/calves area? Unzipping coming out of the water, tuck behind the neck as I'm coming out of the water reach behind neck pull and unzip? I think I want to spend the time taking the suit off right after I get out the water and before I start heading to T1. I know I should prep my transition area with a small tub to wash my feet and do plan to do the bike portion without socks. I'll be training to do so coming into taper month.

My tri is in July so I'm thinking a sleeveless suit, how critical is the body glide in taking off the suit and are there any areas I should apply.
