    The best triathlon wetsuit for poor swimmers needs to have the following features: more buoyancy in the triathletes legs, stabilization in the core area of the wetsuit, the ability for the triathlete to feel the swim catch at the front of the stroke, and buoyancy areas to encourage the triathlete to rotate his or her body side to side while swimming during a triathlon.
