I am in the process of buying a new Tech. Should I buy a Blue70, Speedo LZR or TYR Tracer. The next question what style, full body, legs or jammer. I have always swum my brestroke events in the old school speedo and have done great and PB’s. Fellow swimmers say I need to try a Teck suit as it will improve my times.
Please I need some advice
Do you mean including arms coverage?
Sorry: just meant leg coverage as I don't think there is a full-arm B70.
I know Ande has stated this as well but I disagree a bit. Since there are only a relatively "few" swims in it, I choose to swim some less important meet swims in it instead which, by doing so and popping a couple of impressive (to me) times, created some "wonderment" in the suit.
You'll get used to it real quick, I don't think you need to wear it in a workout to do so. Just my opinion...
I agree with Jim. I liken putting on a tech suit to the old days of shaving down. We never shaved down unless we were peaking for a meet.
With that said, I'll also do exactly what Jim recommends in terms of swimming in a tech suit during an "in season" meet to get some experience in it. For example, I am training through a meet this coming weekend, but plan to put on my B70 for the mile only; my logic being that I'll need all the help I can get!
