Speedo has just released a new body style in the Fastskin FS-PRO swimsuit. The Speedo Fastskin FS-PRO Female Recordbreaker style is now available for sale online at djsports.com. Now you have a regular swimsuit style with the performance of of the FS-PRO fabric. The LZR Pulse fabric is a high density microfiber fabric woven from chlorine resistant elastane and ultra fine nylon thread. 15% more powerful compression than any other lightweight suit on the market. Significantly improved stretch and shape retention. Water repellent coating limits water absorption resulting in a long lasting durable fabric. The limited water absorption creates an incredibly lightweight feel in the water. The Speedo FS Pro fabric has significantly greater fabric power and compression than any other lightweight suit on the market and it is now avaliable in the female recordbreaker style. The compression provides core stability and firmness during competition without feeling restrictive or heavy.
Speedo Pro Backpack
By far the most popular swim backpack is the Speedo Pro Backpack. This is the best selling swimming backpack on the market. So what makes it so great? First off the styling is great with the 100% polyester dobby fabric that gives you that shiny new look and the color choices that will work great with any swim team outfit. The Speedo backpacks have been a great option for many years now and the Pro Backpack continues to take it to the next level with the anatomically shaped shoulder straps, cell phone and goggle pouch, media pocket, wet pocket, ventilated side pockets, and front webbing towel straps. The towel straps are one of my favorite features on a good swim backpack. They are obviously perfect for your towel but they are also great for drying your wet swimsuits after swim practice. I also see a lot of swimmers that will attach key chains and bag tags to the towel straps. Don’t worry about setting your Speedo Pro Backpack on the wet pool deck since it has a water resistant rubberized bottom to keep your stuff dry. Another great option with this swim backpack is the large flap at the top which serves two purposes: easy access to your gear and a great place to embroider your name and swim team logo. Don’t worry if the Pro Backpack is too big because is also has a little brother the Speedo Small Pro Backpack.

Swim Team Suit of the Year
I think the Speedo Shining Star might just be the top pick for swim team swim suit of the year for 2009. Sales have been strong through the fall of 2008 for this suit and swim teams everywhere are picking this fun new swimsuit print. The Shining Star is available in three different styles: a female Flyback version, a female V-Back 2 piece, and the matching male Spliced Jammer style. The Flyback and 2 piece both have skinny straps that are great for fast swimming and minimal tan lines this summer. There are five fun colors in this print including green, blue, purple, red, black/white and navy/red/white. The all over Shining Star print will look awesome around the pool and have your team shining above the competition.

Blue Seventy Nero Suits Now Avaliable On-line
You have heard and seen them and now you can buy one. D&J Sports has just added the Blue Seventy swimskins to their on-line swim store. There has been a lot of controversy about these new suits. Many LSCs have banned these suits but the fact remains is that these have been approved by FINA as a valid swimsuit for competition. These suits have been shown to improve swimmers times by hundreds of seconds all the way to multiple seconds from some swimmers. The unique fabric has been designed for performance. The Blue Seventy Nero Comp swimskins have an enhanced fit that is tighter and reduces drag and improves speed in the water. There are two different styles of the Nero Comp, the full body and the knee style. The full body increase the muscle compression and skin coverage for maximum performance. The knee style give the swimmer more freedom of motion for strokes like breaststroke. Whatever your choice is the Blue Seventy Nero Comp is a great choice and extremely fast suit.
Swimming with a nose clip?
I went swimming the other night at the gym and I always keep to myself and concentrate on my swim, but it never fails that someone just wants to turn the laneline into a bar scene and strike up a conversation. I don’t mind meeting new people and talking but just not in the middle of my swimming set. I am at the wall to catch my breath and rest a few seconds before my next 100 yards of pulling. Well this lady wanted to know how to breath with a nose clip? I told her that I cannot use a noseclip while swimming since I breath out of my nose when my head is down and then take in air when I turn my head for a breath. As far as I know that is the only way to properly swim. Turns out she was trying to teach her friend how to swim and he was having a problem with getting water up his nose. I don’t think using a nose clip is a great idea unless you doing synchronized swimming. I belive after a few snorts of water up the nose you will quickly learn how to blow air out of your nose. Growing up I practiced flipturns in the pool by doing multiple flips in the middle of the pool and if you do not blow air out of your nose then you will be unable to complete the turns. This worked for me and hopefully that can work for you to.
