OK. I've been a little out of the loop and could use some help. Could someone please tell me what kind of suit to buy for something like Nationals? I've been told long leg, short leg, arms, no arms, and even an improper suggestion!
I was told that breaststrokers should do short leg or no leg, backstroke long leg as well as free, and I don't worry about fly! My dilemma is I swim mid-distance back, ***, IM and the occasional distance event. I'm thinking a short leg and long leg suit would be ideal, however until I start breaking some records (not happening anytime soon!) and getting free suits, I can afford only one. Which one? And I'm not even bringing up the whole 'which material' dilemma...
Any input would be helpful.
Thanks :p

If your goal is speed, my suggestion is to buy a nice regular suit and take the couple hundred dollars you save and pay a really good coach to give you some individualized coaching.
