Hi guys, Fellow sprinter, is there a tech suit you prefer? I was looking into the Arena Carbon Pro, but I would like to hear some opinion before pruchasing (budget isn't a concern, just speed ;-)). I assume it differs per build. I am 6'1'' 180-185pounds. (more in the shoulder than anything else!) Thanks!

  • I have tried all those suits and also the B-70 Nero TX. I was very disappointed with the LZR,it just didn't feel comfortable. The Carbon Pro was almost great,but it was too tight for me in the "sensitive male parts". "Compression is not good everywhere. " If you get the Carbon-Pro,do not downsize. The Tyr is a great suit,but I swam my best race ever in the B-70,so I am prejudiced for it. It's most definitely personal preference but i concur with Allen. I have tried many of the tech suite brands but have found BlueSeventy Nero TX to be my favorite also. It's a little more money than the TYR Tracer Light but I was able to pickup one up for $150 ish. I loved the fact it came with a nylon bag branded carrying bag(which is actually useful between big meets for storage), and it has next to no seems. It also fits tight but not too tight in the wrong areas as Allen elegantly articulated.
