Back in the day it was just a plain brief papersuit for races.
Now that I started swimming again there is a whole new breed of racing suits.
I will be swimming ***, Back, Free and IM.
I've heard the above mentioned suits are not good for *** stroke because they inhibit the kick.
I have 2 questions.....
1) What are your experiences with Jammer-Kneeskin-Bodyskin suits and what strokes go well with what suit?
2) Are racing briefs long gone?
Thanks for your input.

Jeff is right. And for that matter, outside of the pool feel free to wear your polyester leisure suit for a night out on the town--who cares what people think?
Seriously, I really like my FSII bodyskin (sleeveless), much more than the legskins. However, I didn't have to pay for it (it's a long story). It felt like there was a buoyancy effect when it was dry, but I could have imagined that. Anyway, I swam (masters) personal bests wearing it--and of course, training had nothing to do with it.
