Do you guys utilize a different pair for workouts vs races? If so what are you guys wearing?
  • I wear a polyester jammer for workouts.I wear whatever I have in my swim bag of "old"racing suits (more than about 3 meets) for local meets.For taper meets I have been wearing B-70s Nero TX ,but I got an Arena carbon suit www.arenapowerskin.com/.../ for Nationals.
  • YEAH practice are the old ones & keep the new "tech" ones for meets!
  • I have three types of jammer. 1. Polyester Speedo for training 2. Speedo Aquablade for normal meets 3. Nike Hydra3 for Nationals
  • Do you guys utilize a different pair for workouts vs races? If so what are you guys wearing? Speedo Endurance or older Yingfa for practice. New Yingfa for nationals.

    Speedo Endurance or older Yingfa for practice. New Yingfa for nationals. How much donut racing ones run?
  • I don't wear jammers at practice--I wear a speedo and drag suit, instead. For all non-championship meets, I wear the previous year's championship meet suit. This year, I'm wearing FSII jammers at meets. For Nats I'm trying to convince myself that this suit will be worth it. :banana:
  • People who wear jammers at practice are weird. :)
  • Is there a big difference between workout and race jammers? Are they much faster?
  • Endurance in practice and meet events that are for fun (fly, IM) Tyr ap12 for the 50 fr The tech suit provides a huge difference in drag, compression, body position, and placebo effect - well worth it
  • i have found that a jammer wont let me keep a pull buoy in place. and yes BIG difference between workout and race. workout is the cheapest that fits. race is TYR AP12 and you wouldnt want to pay for many of those! sadly, my shoulder is in such bad shape that i'm not even training to race but just to get back to a normal lifestyle without constant pain.
