 So, it's getting a little colder outside. I'm about to hang up my wetsuit for the season. I've heard that you aren't supposed to fold it to store it, but I'm not sure why. Would I be safe just rolling it up and storing it in a plastic tub in the garage for the winter, or would it get bent out of shape? And should I was it a certain way before I store it?
Thanks!
