>>257555It'll get you really comfortable in the water and it'll get you really used to being on the verge of hypercapnia.
Remember, ALWAYS dive with a buddy. With freediving, one down, one up.
One up should be at the ready, snorkel in, ready to retrieve you if you black out at 15-25 ft.
I've also heard that you should also weight yourself to be positively buoyant above about 20 ft so the neoprene will help pull you up if you do black out.
Don't ask me though, I'm a faggot on open circuit.
