Cutting the latex wrist gaskets on a Kokatat Angler?

Went out fishing yesterday and after about an hour, the latex wrist gasket on my casting arm rolled up making a fine, and painful, tourniquet.  Could not get it to flatten out again to save my life.

This hasn't happened before, but I've never been casting as hard or as often before, either, and I think that's why they'd never rolled up on me before now.

Has anyone cut the wrist gaskets for a better fit?  Or was there some operator error involved?

I trimmed mine back as they were a bit too tight, trimmed about 1/4" each time, tested the suit out, repeated...I ended up with about 1.5" of gasket at each wrist, I can wear my suit all day and during my last self-recovery test/swim, had no water leak in.  cheers, roger

Thank you, roger.  I wasn't sure if this is one of those gaskets you cut or you stretch.

try stretching first, then if the seal is still too tight, trim it ONLY a little at a time.   It's easy to go to far.
