Wearing a tech suit at Nationals?

I graduated college in 1999, just before tech suits took over the world. I have never worn anything other than an old school Speedo (and a wetsuit for open water.) A friend of mine has pretty much convinced me to try it out at Nationals this weekend since it is my first and last chance. He gave me his suit to wear, so it's free. Any thoughts? Are most of you wearing tech suits, or going old school? Thanks!

  • Glenn @ GoSwim.tv posted this nice little sendoff drill for those of us going to Atlanta and wearing a tech suit... of the floaty kind I imagine :) YouTube- Turns - Tech Suit Turns. The last hurrah! I'd say... listen to the tips as Glenn talks through the video clip, but don't watch the swimmers! Those bobbing heads and streamlines are kinda painful to see over and over :( Hope I meet Bill in a warm-up lane! you obviously missed the note at the bottom directed at "swim-technique snobs"... you might want to go back and re-read that part...
