Blue Seventy Nero Comp sizing

All I know is that these suits are made for people who don't have a 32 waist.

Has anyone actually been able to get hold of one of these suits anyway? I've had a Nero Comp on order from the Blue Seventy website for over 3 weeks, and my order is just sat there in state "Pending". I suspect they aren't going to be sending any out to "normal" swimmers until after the Olympics. By the way, I agree with the above comments, the sizings are all wrong for my body as well. By weight I'm size 24-26, by height 26-28, by waist 30, and by chest, some non-existent much bigger size that they don't make (44" chest). My order is for a 30 just because of past experience that suits are always very tight around my chest, and I just have to put up with them being loose around the waist. Even suits that are loose around the waist have in the past left me with marks around my chest for several months after a 1500 race, and for this reason I wear legskins most of the time now.

Gil Stovall wore a Blue Seventy Nero Comp in the 200 Butterfly finals and made the US 2008 Olympic Team at the 150 mark in the race Tarwater was 1:23.42, Stovall was 1:24.00. off the turn Stovall pushed off deeper and SDKed further catching and passing Tarwater on the last length. 1 4 PHELPS Michael CWMI 0.74 (1) 25.47 (1) 53.75 (1) 1:23.04 1:52.20 US 28.28 29.29 29.16 2 3 STOVALL Gil ABSCGA 0.69 (7) 26.28 (3) 54.81 (3) 1:24.00 1:53.86 1.66 28.53 29.19 29.86 3 5 TARWATER Davis CWMI 0.74 (1) 25.47 (2) 54.21 (2) 1:23.42 1:54.46 2.26 28.74 29.21 31.04

hey hoc, you did some pretty fast swimming there 26 seems too tight 28 should work better I've got a 32 and a 30 haven't tried the 30 yet ande

I think a 28 would be too big for you! You seem around Glenn Mills size, except slimmer. Glenn said his 28 was way too big for him and he was collecting water in the lower back. Oops, sorry reread, and you're thinking 26. Sounds like you might be a 24 though. Maybe so. But I am afraid that even a 26 will feel tight around my chest and shoulders. My FS II (which our team received in a care package from Klete Keller a couple of years ago) is a large/long and fits perfectly.

hey she heard you swam in a meet in your blue seventy please tell us your before and after times ande I think there's a covenant (one of many) against posting my times as that could imply that I may have a hint of a competitive nature, so I PM'd you. Wasn't tapered or rested as I've got a 25K in 2 weeks, but the biggest drops were 22 seconds in the 800 fr and 14 in the 200 fly. Swam 6 other events as well. Nice drops. I think it was the B70 and all that weight lifting I've been doing. SDK's were stinky as the pool was 4 feet at the blocks and 3 feet at the other end of the pool. Okay, I'm joking on the weightlifting.

5'8" 130 lbs Don't have a measuring tape so not sure what the rest of my measurements are Size 26 fits perfectly - Nero Comp Did try a 24 and got it on however the crotch was about 2 inches too low - the legs were just too short for me

Stilling thinking about a suit? Make sure you get your order in plenty early before your big meet. My 06/28/08 order just got shipped yesterday. Whew! Was worried it went to the Land of Misfit Orders.

Not so fast, NotVeryFast! I have not received my suit, and I leave for my one LCM meet of the season tomorrow morning. I may have been bamboozled (ie, the check is in the mail). Come to think of it, my monthly GotFruit has not arrived yet, either! Sounds like you had sucess with this suit! Nice to hear they are stretchier than the FS Pros. Will be nice to hear back from you after a meet.
