Even the entry tech models would be a waste on my current speed (and my height &amp;amp; shape would be very difficult to fit).

I practice in Dolfin Uglies (grab bag $25ish on SwimOutlet), race in a Speedo Endurance (grab bag $30ish), and at my national champs race in a basic Arena tech suit ($130). As you say, I feel like splurging on a nicer suit isn&amp;#39;t worth it with my less-than-enthusiastic training efforts. I figure my in-season results are a direct result of my training habits and I just want something comfortable that will last me a season&amp;#39;s worth of meets.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Non-Tech Competition Suits</title><link>https://community.usms.org/thread/195545?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 16 Jun 2015 03:03:45 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:5322c6bd-d03c-4b9f-bfd7-743df125f8f2</guid><dc:creator>Patrick W. Brundage</dc:creator><description>I&amp;#39;m a guy, so can&amp;#39;t comment on fit, but I typically race in Endurance-like suits (e.g., actually Speedos or TYR Durafast) for all my &amp;quot;non-taper&amp;quot; meets and then have found the TYR Tracer Light to be a great racing suit that is &amp;quot;tech enough&amp;quot; to feel fast but not a wallet buster.  Hope that helps.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
