i ordered a speedo endurance in my regular lycra size and tried it on today at home... and it fits pretty well except for the bottom part! i'm sure it'll ride up sooner or later and i'll moon everyone. eeks are speedo endurances usually like this? a bigger size would balloon in the water...

I love my poly suits. I've got Speedo Endurance ones (the lightest and the stretchiest of the lot), TYR Durafast ones (very thick, I've got full-lined ones) and a Dolfin suit.
The Dolfin one is on par with TYR ones in terms of thickness and heaviness but holds the shape much better. And considering the retail price of Dolfin poly suits is roughly half of the TYR/Speedo ones, it was an excellent buy.
The Speedo suits do tend to stretch in the water but in comparison to TYR/Dolphin I can barely feel them on my skin during swimming. If I had to race in a poly suit, I'd probably choose Dolfin though - purely for the compression effect it provides.
