OK, with tech suits going the way of the Dodo bird I am looking at other ways to reduce drag. I have never been one to use a swim cap, but now it might be one of the only legal things left.
I know, I know, I should shave down for the big meet........and I may have to do that, but in the meantime, we have the latex cap which seems to wrinkle on top, the silicone cap and the racing cap.
I don't care about the manufacturer, but I would like to hear some feedback on the different types of caps as listed above and how well they work for you.
Thank you all!!!

Swim Faster Faster Tip 228 is V-lieve it or Not
I'd go further to say it's a good idea to have short hair, wet hair is weight.
Caps hold hair.
Caps trap heat.
Caps can conceal goggle straps. Straps under Caps.
Some swimmers wear 2 caps, usually a latex cap under an Aqua V
Latex caps, are thin.
Silicone caps are thicker.
I prefer the aqua V for Sprints because it has fewer wrinkles.
I don't like to wear a cap in warm water or on long swims, I keep cooler without a cap.
Some swimmers shave their heads for BIG meets.
