I purchased the Yingfa body suit from George Park last week and used it for the local YMCA masters championship meet the was held at Clarion University of PA this weekend, April 4 & 5, 2009.
I had never worn anything other than a jammer for meets (TYR fusion).
The suit fit well and took about 10 minutes for me to get into.
I have not been praticing much this past year due to coaching committments, and am not in the best shape.
I am a breaststroker and the suit seemed to really help on turns and the start.
I have been doing 1:14's this season for the 100 SCY ***. This weekend I went a 1:11.79. 50 *** was 33.90 all season and did a 32.83.
Before using a body suit, as a coach, I did not think the suit would make much of a difference, but according to the times I did this weekend, it definitely improved my times.
I can not see spending the big $$ for the better known tech suits but the price for the Yingfa was something I could live with.
I would recemmend the Yingfa for the price and fit.
Thank you George.

Anna, I talked with George about the size and he recommended a large for me. I am male, 6' about 160 LB. The large fit me very well. It takes about 10 to 15 minutes for me to get into it.
I would think a Medium would fit you best, but would email George for his assitance.
Jim, I talked with her as well and ask where she heard about the 5 pound brick, because I had not heard that before. She stated that the information came from her speedo rep. Not sure if that would be accurate coming from the competition.
The Blue 70 web site has some press releases that state alot of miss information is out there and they will be making changes if necessary.
All the suits in now being tested and we will have to wait to see the outcome.
