  Hi Sumanan,

  Unfortunately, there is no fix for this. It is probably time for a new suit.

  This is due to the chlorine eating away at the glue, so to prevent it in the future, maybe rinse your suit with fresh water after each wear.

  Hope this helps!

  Thank you so much! I will have to ask for one for Christmas :)

  Too late for Christmas but I suggest looking at a website called trinity triathlon. I bought a suit from them (men's) at an expo show and l ike it slot. Made in Italy

  This is great, thank you so much for sharing.

  I was on a triathlon team a few years ago and you wouldn't believe how many talented athletes got intimidated by the open water swim. I wish I could have shared this with them.

  The feeling of being attached can seem a little scary at first. Practice in an obstacle and traffic free area, and not in a peloton. While riding, detach one foot and continue to pedal with the attached foot. Then re-connect and do the alternate foot. Do this until the operations are really comfortable and easy. Be sure that the pedals and your footwear are clean and properly lubricated.

  The important matter while riding is to anticipate the need for a free foot. There are times when this doesn't happen. I usually dump over about once a year. I do wear gloves with wrist support for protection.

  Patrice, The Vista Mask is a great option! The regular Aqua Sphere Vista mask is the same size as the ladies mask and it is offered in several tinted options.
