Ive warn pretty much every suit. So far the FS pro highneck has been the one that feels faster to me. Anyone warn a lzr or nero comp? Would it be worth it to buy one of these or stick with the fs pro?
Thanks

I like the B70, but you'll have to shop around to find one now.
I'm going a non-taper meet this weekend and swimming four events. I'm going to try four different suits to see how I feel they compare:
B70
Speedo FSPro full body
Old "paper suit" jammers from Arena that I bought back in 2003
Speedo Endurance jammers
When it comes to jammers, I'm not sure there's a lot of extra value in scaling up the technology and paying more. I imagine that I'll feel just as fast in my cheap endurance jammers as I would in any other jammers.
For full body suits, I think you'll need to try different suits. A lot of people like the B70, but a lot also like the FSPro. I still haven't come around to liking my FSPro, but will try to learn to love it this weekend.
You might be able to tell a difference in the jammer. There were some videos on floswimming about the new suits. It said the main benefit on the suit in a sprint event is the buoyancy. Ive heard the b70 can hold up 4 lbs when the rest only hold up about 1. Pretty interesting info....
I wanted to see what everyone elses opinion was. I think if you are confident in your suit you will swim fast. So if you step on the block confident in the fsi then its a good suit for you.
But honestly I want to try one of these newer plasticy suits incase they ban them.
