I was pleased to see the mainstream media focus on the masters response to the suits. And a fairly balanced article too; many articles about the suit don't seem to be very complimentary to the sport but this one seemed okay.
But unlike Tom, I was surprised to see the bit about added knee stability. I've had 4 knee surgeries and this was news to me, I didn't feel any better (ie more stable) with or without the legskins. I'd love to hear different experiences from others.
Now, if they can make a suit that turns me into a great breaststroker...that's technology that I would like to see!
Update FYI: Coach Jim Miller -- who is also my doctor -- stated that none of these suits provide any joint stabilization. So I guess I won't be wearing a LZR for downhill skiing...
Obviously you forgot to turn the knob on the back from "long axis" to "breaststroke before swimming.(That takes some practice to do in the middle of an IM.)After all ,these suits do swim by themselves.
