So I have never started a thread before - but here is something I have not seen before.......
My FS Pro came today - and I was told to go slowly and put it on and that it could take up to 30 minutes...... is that for real??
I am at 20 minutes and I am stuck at the hips - for real!
It is the high neck body skin..... and if that zipper was about 2 inches longer I could probably get it over my hips and I wouldn't be standing here with my butt hanging out waiting for a reply.
If I don't stop laughing I may split something. I know the elite swimmers don't have real hips - but does anyone out there have any suggestions and How long does it take on average to get in one?
I'll miss all my events at nationals just trying to get the suit on!!!!
I had the same problem with mine. I am small from the waist up, but have what I call, "my mother's butt" :mooning:. I can get the suit up to my thighs, but not over the hips. Do what Rich said to get you to the thighs. Then step into a regular garbage bag that you have cut the bottom out of. Put the garbage bag around your waist like a plastic skirt. While wearing the plastic so that it covers your hips and butt, pull it up and over your garbage bag skirt. Then remember to reach in and remove the garbage bag. Yes, you will look silly in the locker room, but it won't take you 30 minutes either. I started doing this in Houston with my FS Pro and it worked every time. (even in all that humidity)
Did anyone mention wearing a plastic bag over each foot to start with ? That makes getting the leg placement a little easier too. Try this and I think you will like it. Then you just have to make sure you pack enough garbage bags for each meet. They can be re-used.
