I have seen guys using jammers mostly now. However, there were a good number of swimmers in briefs at Santa Clara. I'm leaning toward getting one for competition. I have square suits that I use for practice.
Does it matter what strokes I do?
Briefs.
I did not like the feeling on my hamstring that the short john tech suit had, and doubt it would be different for the jammers. Like Chris, I don't think there will be much difference in times between the suits. but I may get a jammer for Nationals only to avoid some shaving hassles.
I can buy briefs from an area vendor at about $15 a suit. Just can't beat the price, and the things last forever. I like jammers too, and I am not opposed to pulling a pair out for a major race. Otherwise, I stick to the traditional...
There still are some tech suits still legal. They may not be the neopreane or rubber suits but thay are still high tech.
I guess I'll wear my TECH suit for practice now!:bolt:
I don't understand how a drag suit meshes with that statement. A practice suit? sure. A drag suit? Nope.
He may be referring to a practice suit. I swap the term drag suit and practice suit all the time but they are still the same suit.

Correct. For the precisionistas among us, I should properly have referred to it as a second practice suit. Or a Baggy. Or a square poly brief. But apparently not a drag suit.
