| 25 | Subject: RE: What's everyone wearing for non-wetsuit legal races? Brandon Marsh (1st out of the water at IMTX) wore one of our back zip (ITU) 1 pc suits over his 2 pc kit for the swim. If you are a super fast swimmer you'll get more benefit from a 1pc or even a swim skin. If you are mid-pack or slow like me just wear what makes you comfortable. -Joey |

Master 8247 Eugene, Oregon Bronze member | Subject: RE: What's everyone wearing for non-wetsuit legal races? One piece compression trisuit (2XU). Can't say that it's any faster than the two-piece but mentally I like it much better. The two piece ones are always too loose around the waist and the flapping (my swims are often into current, in the ocean) was driving me nuts. With the one piece I can focus better on my swim. I would recommend a one-piece compression (or swimskin) if you have a competitive swim background and are used to those tight racing suits; maybe not for iron distance, though. |

Master 1883 San Antone, Texas | Subject: RE: What's everyone wearing for non-wetsuit legal races? Right now just a normal Zoot tri top and bottom. I've been eying the DeSoto Lift Foil swim skin recently though. |

why the split suit in longer races? bathroom breaks? Yup, exactly. I have a Zoot Ultra Tri Suit and a set of Zoot Ultra Tri Top/Shorts so they're essentially the same thing, but its not fun trying to go to the bathroom and even less fun trying to get the suit back on when your done. |
