Speedo has released their "new and improved" suit. Below is a link to the story at swimming world, with quotes from various swimmers about "how it makes em feel"

As much as I like body suits... I just can't see buying a "new and improved" style until they quit making the older models.
But I bet some 10 year old will have it for a b-c meet before long.

Arrrrg!
Too funny. I finally got my very first FSII highneck bodyskin (at a huge discount) via UPS today. I see I'm several steps behind.
I have issues when the models look questionable (at best) in this get-up.
The price is insane. Anyone know how many swims this suit lasts?
The woman at Kastaway said the FSPRO according to Speedo lasts "about 5 swims." Although I understand from masters you can wear it more than that. But still. . .
Just on pure principle alone, I would rather work extra hard and beat my competition (or lose!) in a $30 dolphin suit than pay $550.
Speedo.com sent me an email stating that Phelps said, "It feels like a spacesuit." I don't want to be an astronaut on the pool deck. The whole thing is sort of a turnoff. . .
