We've got just 2 more months with full body suits.
After May 31st for SCY & right now for LCM & SCM, we need to figure out which suits to wear in competition?
What suit/s are you going to wear?

Until I hear/see a groundswell of opinion that the new tech suit material in jammers for men "matters," I'll probably be sticking with Endurance-like jammers for in-season meets and an Aquablade for any taper meets. I just can see the ROI on a $200 jammer.
This summer should be the first time I get to race in most events in LCM, though I'm not sure I'll get a true taper meet in. I'll aim to swim each event once over these four meets and then see if I can find a meet in July that meshes with my kids & vacation schedule:
Memorial Day weekend: Cactus Classic (USAS): probably swim the 1500, one of the 400 free or 400 IM, maybe some other things
June 5th: Mesa Masters meet
June 10th/11th: (Hopefully) Southwest Classic (Tucson, dual USAS-USMS)
June 27th: Flagstaff Masters meet -- see how painful it is to sprint at altitude
Sweden & Puerto Rico, as much as I'd like to be at either or both, conflict with kids/family commitments.
I'm with PW...I don't think a "compression" jammer will do much for you. I'll be swimming in our $27 team jammers or briefs.
