I tried on the FS PRO today, it was very tight... even the XXL was tight, although I think the XL will work fine... but, but... it just seems like a full body paper suit... versus the FS 2 which has all the cool material, etc..
Which one is better? $450 dollars is the price here, is there a better way to order it? I'd rather wait for the LZR in the fall if that's the best I can do.
But the fact is for an elite swimmer who's immediate financial future can be won or lost on tenths or even hundredths of seconds, I say more power to them, if they think buying a $500 suit or even a $10,000 suit makes sense for THEM, go for it. It's all about determining your return on investment. And that return does not have to be in money, it can be in happiness, personal satisfaction, bragging rights, what have you.
And by the way, I bought a FS Pro 2 months ago for $50 on Ebay because there was a negative perceived ROI with buying a LZR. Just thought you'd like to know.
