[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does the venn diagram between people who can afford the kind of swimming that requires tech suits and people who need donated tech suits look like? Is there anyone who falls into that group? [/quote]

It's nil the suits are used up.  This is pretty common in *performance* sports gear.  Professional soccer players go through cleats very quickly, only a game or two.  This is why they have different ratings for the same model shoe.  Acadamy to elite, so the kids can wear their Messi's but don't have to pay for all of the features of the pros that they can't use anyway, and they are more reliable.  They usually come in four grades.  The higher grades have the features, carbon fiber, rubber grips, but they are usually heavier and more durable, eg they are expected to last a season of high school soccer.

The tech suits for high schoolers and under with professional features is a bit unusual, though many of the athletes are actually peak in their swimming career, but they aren't anywhere near pro caliber. [/quote]
