I would not pay over $35.00 for a tech Jammer.

I would not pay over $35.00 for a tech Jammer.Any new Yingfa models available that could go head-to-head on compression and material with the Tracer Light? I liked the Sharkskin model as a great in-season suit, but, at least IMHO, the Tracer Light is better on material and compression. It would be great if Yingfa could produce a 'paper-suit' like jammer that was competitively priced.

The #9402 has more compression then the sharkskin and reports are it is faster. Any new Yingfa models available that could go head-to-head on compression and material with the Tracer Light?

They even had free shipping and returns so i bought a 28 and a 30 to see which fits best. I had a 26(S4) in the speedo which was too tight for the middle distanc events so suspect the 28 will work in the TYR suite. Thanks for the link Patrick.

I agree with pwb. I have used tyr trace light in meets. The suit is holds up well.

Go with the Tyr Tracer Light if you want something reliable and inexpensive for a racing suit/tech suit.

Ever since they got rid of the full body suits, I've refused to pay the big bucks for jammers. I really like the TYR Tracer Light (www.tyr.com/.../tracer-light-jammer.html), though shop around the web as you should be able to get it closer to $125 and occasionally even as low as approaching $100. I'm a 34 waist and sized down to a 32 which is great for a couple of meets, but am even contemplating a 30 to see if I can handle the compression when it's new, but then get a few more meets out of it.
