A friend brought this trick back from Cabarete.  
Put a plastic bag (grocery bag) over your foot before you pull your
wet/drysuit on........slick as sh*t......careful you don't put your knees
through!!!

And for those of you with tight neck seals............well maybe not.

a few yeard back and it is design for easy entry and removal of wetsuits
around your foot. It workd great.

I have found some dish soap also works.

I tried the bag on the foot technique yesterday evening and can fully endorse
 it. I was in the suit in 20 seconds and saved all manner of contortions. That
 gave me an extra 2 minutes of sailing!
