I know there are many of you out there with strong feelings against technical suits. While I respect your opinions, I am wanting to try a technical suit for the SCY 2011 state/national meets. What I am looking for here are suggestions, tips, and/or recommendations from people who are using technical suits as to what I should be looking for - other than "FINA approved". If you have any advice for someone looking to buy her first technical suit, please let me know. If it makes a difference, I am focusing on mainly freestyle and fly.
Thanks!
My teenaged daughter likes the TYR Tracer Light -- www.swimoutlet.com/.../11289.htm -- which is one of the most reasonably priced of the technical suits. Hers has stood up to 3 competition meets and she swims distance events. I wear the men's jammer version and find the compression and material quite good -- tight and feels sturdier than some of the more expensive suits.
My daughter's friends have had loads of problems with all variants of the Speedo technical suits. One has returned 3 suits for rips after single swims.
