I pee out of the pee zipper on my Kokatat Drysuit.

Don't pee in the suit. The acid in the pee breaks down the glue at the seams, as that is the weakest part. USCG dive training suggests not doing so, although it is not unheard of after long hours in the suit.

I used to surf winters when I was young...1st thing you do when you go in...brings that water in the suit up to body temp right quick. That's the reason we all drank so many beers all the time.....ya that's the reason....I wouldn't lie.

ChubRub. Where a pair of very thin polyester pants under the suit or shorts. Will prevent the rub.

I never had done it prior to a Cuttyhunk trip last year. Tynan19 built it up like it was the best thing that could ever happen to me so I tried it while I was out there. It was fantastic! Since then I've started washing my suit every trip though! I just soak it in dishwashing soap and water. Works great. I have two suits so I always have one that's dry.

Yeah couldn't imagine having to swim back to shore to take a leak it was bad enough in waders getting your belt off and then the top. Mike, glad you changed your mind.

The other part thats a pain in the ass is when you're into fish and your wader buddies have to pee and you get stuck being the coat rack as they climb to the highest part of the rock and hand you all their gear just to pee, Wear depends and let me fish !

I put a zipper in my wetsuit.
Horiziontal under my belt.
Works perfect, don't have to take anything off.
I don't know about you but peeing in my suit bothered me.

back in 1990 I lived in Florida and did some marine construction. We worked doing seawall repairs on the intercoastal. During the months of Jan and Feb we wore wetsuits.

When nature called (#1) we just peed in the wetsuit. It does warm you up but takes getting used to; letting the flow start.

Cleaning the wetsuit is essential. Urine leaves the body almost sterile but will leave a rash.

#2 is totally out of the question.:yak5:

Luds, dishwashing soap is to aggressive for neoprene and will break it down in time. A freshwater rinse or soak is fine after each use or two but to wash it use either wetsuit wash or baby shampoo.

If you are gonna pee in it, which I do, don't do it when you are still dry and not when you get on your front seat going to another spot. That is just weird.
