I jus purchased the Synergy Adrenaline 2 weeks ago and have swam in about 6 times and am loving it, great flexability in arms and shoulders. After usuing other brands I will be sticking with this company.

CDA in 7 days, see ya there.

Does anyone else find these constant wetsuit debates laughable?
The fastest wetsuit is the fastest wetsuit FOR YOU. You have to try them on, test them out, and figure out what fits and swims best.
At the top level, pretty much all of the suits are equally "good", considering they are made of the same materials, with similar ideas in mind. But they are all shaped differently, and therefore fit differently-shaped people differently.
No claim any company or person on this forum may say will change any of that.

You are right, some of them start to get a little over the top, but I think most here said just what you did. It was not a debate, but a few people telling their expirences with certain suits. No debate, just personal expirences, and I think that the OP probably got something out of all the discussion...

True, debate was probably the wrong word, it was just the first one that popped into my head. I just think that even personal experiences are kind of pointless, since a suit that could be crap for one person may be the best possible for another.
Maybe I'm wrong though. Happens often enough.

Re: The best / fastest wetsuit out currently available [Emilio] [In reply to] Can't Post

I'd love to try one Emilio. I can't believe that hasn't happened yet, either. It's finally getting warm enough here to swim open water. I don't have plans to head out that way for a while, as it's slow here, so funds are tight. I guess I need to market more? ;-)
It would be great to see you again soon, and I promise, I'll try one out.

I think you will find that Aquaman is the most popular suit on the ITU circuit, but since they don't advertise much we don't see them much here. I feel they are as fast as any, yet lack of marketing is killing them.



Gary,

There is a photographer who advertises all the time in a couple of national magazines, but his photography is not nearly as good as yours. Honda advertises a lot more than Ferrari, Lambourhini, and Bugatti, but all three of these cars are much faster than Honda (at least the street legal ones).

Why have we not gotten you into a T1 after all these years as friends?

I hope all is well in the Windy City. Next time in town, come in and I will loan you a T1 to try out.
