Swimsuit Question for Waterparks

[donald&daisy]

So I bought this swimsuit:

Thinking it was perfect for the waterparks because it would stay in place and it was flattering (something so hard to find these days). So my question is, I just read that you can't have exposed metal on your swimsuit and this suit has a small metal ring as you can see in the picture. Now it is 3/4 covered by fabric and if I mess with it I can cover it even more than that. This summer will be my first foray into the waterparks and I do not want to show and not be able to ride anything. So is this swimsuit ok or do I need to subject myself to more swimsuit shopping? TIA!

I think it should be fine - I love the suit! If you are concerned about it, you could maybe just use a needle and thread and whip-stitch the fabric together to cover the metal completely. Then, after Disney, you could carefully snip the thread and the metal would show again.

Maybe that will work.

you should be fine. Just don't go down the slides on your stomache

Seriously I cannot see where this will be a problem at all. I think they are more in thinking of brads etc like on blue jeans.

I have also read threads where they say no metal on bathing suits at the water parks. I would not want to chance it.

I think that is an excellent idea, this way you won't have to worry about it.

Thanks for the input. I think I will just stitch it together. I was dreading going shopping again...fyi, I you like it, I got the suit at Target.

Why can't you have metal on a swimsuit at the water parks??

 

[indigoxtreme]

Because it can dig into the slides and cause problems with them.

Very Nice Suit. I think it should be fine. I have a suit similiar to this one though it has a buckle in the back instead of the front and has the mesh seethrough stuff around the back and sides. I wore this one in WDW. I was never said anything to about it.

Is a bikini ok to wear if you aren't planning on going on the straight down slides? I know it's ok policy-wise, but I wasn't sure practially. Don't want to give any shows... it is WDW after all!

I wore a tankini on one of the tube slide things at one of the water parks and I came down so fast into the pool of water and the back got winded up (and if I stood up everything would have been exposed) The bottoms also got rolled down on the back. I was fixng my suit and the guy yelled at me to get out...I was kinda angry, but he had no idea why I was just sitting there. I would be careful wearing any kind of two piece.

I personally think you will be fine.

I would guess they are talking about things on the seats or sides of suits that will scratch the sides of slides.

Men wiht a big rivet on a picket of suit or such.

Disney shopping has a great suit sale and I have found their suits are great for wonmen.
