LZR Elite size charts -- are they accurate?

I'm looking to possibly purchase a LZR Elite kneeskin as my next suit and am not sure about the sizing. According to the charts, I would wear a 25L. For reference, I train in a 30 lycra/poly, have a 26 in the B70 Nero TX and wore a 24 in the B70 Nero Comp. Does the 25L sound about right, or would the 26 or 27 be a better bet? I'm 5'6" and weigh 125. Thanks!

I have a longish body, so the 25L is really nice. Took me about 7 minutes to put it on the first time, over a practice suit at nats in Atlanta. I have big shoulders, and am narrower in the waist and hip than most, but have booty. Hope this helps and PM me if you have any questions. I've not raced in this suit yet, but plan to for my summer taper meet.
