Here's a thread for the ladies to discuss anything that relates to women and swimming. For example, feel free to discuss how disgustingly ugly fastskins are, how the "curse" can kill a meet, how suits don't fit, how swimming wrecks your hair, how hormones unhinge you, etc.
I bought myself a Fastskin II off Swimoutlet. It's the Recordbreaker in the regular suit style with an open back; not the knee or ankle length. I wear a 36, so I ordered a 36. The suit's compression causes my hips to bulge out the bottom of the leg openings. No matter where I put the leg openings :blush: it looks funky. Is this the way it is supposed to look? The suit does not feel tight, but I can't imagine walking around in it for 3 or so hours at a meet. I am thinking of going to a local store and trying on some other brands or styles before I order another one. I can tell that if I get it any larger I am going to have drag. Is this why people mostly buy the knee or ankle length? Please give me your input, advice, experiences with these types of suits. Thanks.
Don't wear it 3 hr at a meet.Change out of it right after your swim and dry it as best you can for your next event.(These suits are faster dry and the less you wear it the less it stretches out.)
