hey guys,
I'm seriously thinking about getting and trying the FS II Legskins

I've currently use the hineck but I've noticed many fast swimmers wear legskins in fly and back
I also have fastskin jammers in my swim bag
to throw on for fast swims in practice

(it seems to make a difference versus my training suit)
What's your opinion about which works best?
briefs, jammers, legskin, kneeskin or the hineck?
Why?
Ande
drag suit vs
training suit vs
jammers vs
leg skin vs
hi neck
What's the difference between a drag suit and a training suit? And is there a reason why a traditional speedo suit isn't listed, or is that covered under one of the other categories?
When I first saw guys wearing jammers, I'd wonder where their bike was, and I still call them bike shorts. Very rarely do we have any guys wearing anything but a regular speedo or drag suits at our practices.
As someone mentioned in another thread regarding doing fly kicks, some things should be left to the professionals. If swimming was my life and I did it for my job, I'd want the best equipment I could afford (or my employer/sponsor could) to give me an edge (kinda like my company gives me a good computer, crackberry, and all the other tools I need to do my job successfully). And I'd want the same for those who represent our country in the sport. But for the average sports enthusiast, the costs of equipment can get prohibitively expensive. Not every golfer buys the best clubs for thousands of $$$ (when an ok set is ~$200), and not every swimmer should have to buy gear on that same scale.
