Speedo Aquablade/Fastskin FSII sizing

In my effort to not get any DFLs at nationals, I am looking at less expensive tech suits. I usually get Yingfa suits, but my body shape has changed and my old one (size XL) does not fit well, so I am afraid to get a new one that won't fit. Swim Outlet has the Speedos on sale. I wear a 34 endurance jammer for practice. My waist is just under 34". In my efforts to work on kicking the last few months, I have picked up 3/4" on my legs (thighs -- nothing I do will make them longer(!)). This is where I am having trouble with the old Yingfa. The Speedo size chart says to get a 30 for a 34" waist. Does this sound right for a short adult male with thick legs? Help appreciated.

  • Metro swim shop has the Nike hydra3 on sales for $59. www.metroswimshop.com/product.TDSS0060black.htm It's an awesome suit and at $59 it's incredibly cheap. I wear a 30 Nike drag suit and drop to a 28 for there competition suits. Well, I bought this suit, and I can see why it is MSRP $220. Serious compression, but stretchy enough to fit my thighs and not ride low in the back. It's a little tight in the man parts, but not too bad. I can't wait to swim in it. Fit-wise way better than the Yingfas I have. I got the 32.
