Granddaughter was very pleased. Looking forward to competing in it.
I bought the Aquablades for my daughters to use as their competition suit. At first I wasn't sure of what size to purchase, because they wear the Speedo Endurance suits for practice. My youngest daughter wears a 28 in the Speedo Endurance suit, and I purchased a size 24 in the Aquablade. It fit perfectly. It's tighter than the endurance suit but we could still pull the straps up so she had room. If we had gotten the 26 in the Aquablade it probably would've bagged in the butt and been wrinkly in the stomach area. Not what you want in a competition suit. My other daughter wears a 34 in the endurance and I got her a 32 in the Aquablade. She has a more womenly body so I was concerned it would be too tight if I went any lower in size, but it was perfect as well on her! She's 5'1'' and weighs 135. I hope this helps any other mother purchasing for their daughters who are shaped differently! :0)
I used this suit for a 5 mile open water swim race, and it was great. It felt comfortable the whole time (of course at since I was swimming in salt water, I also used body glide). The suit fit well and made me feel fast.
A great meet suit at a great price! For meets when you don't want to get out the more expensive tech suit, this is a great, fast suit! A really flattering, good fit too!
I play underwater hockey and love the high neck on this suit which cuts down on the scoop and drag effect due to a somewhat larger chest size than other players, so I can definitely fin faster. As I play mostly with guys speed is important. I would buy this suit again.
I wear it daily, and with proper care, it outlasts all others I've used.
