Jammer-Kneeskin-Bodyskin - what's best?

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.

Men in the recent Olympics and World Championships were mostly wearing these styles according to stroke. Butterfly: Legs, jammer, or full body (no sleeves) Backstroke: Jammer Breaststroke: Jammer Freestyle: Full body (no sleeves) Medley: Jammer
