[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At what point is a 12&U posting fast enough times that a tech suit will make a difference? I'm thinking here of the physics/drag, not of the comfort/psychological benefit (which I don't doubt could be genuine). Curious![/quote] A coach once described it this way to my child: imagine a cake. It has no icing and tastes really, really good. If you add just so-so icing to it, it is still pretty good. If you add amazing icing to it, it will taste really good. And if your cake was terrible to begin with, no amount of icing will fix it. Being a good swimmer is the cake. The suit is the icing. [b]It has a very small effect beyond a psychological one, but when you are very good, that small effect matters. [/b][/quote] Yep, my kid dropped 2+ seconds after she started using a tech suit. Fixed a mental block.[/quote]
