in our local speedo shop, they have one of them suits on display. The sales woman told me some local aces have tried it on (it's true - even an XL suit on an S person takes 15+ minutes to put on) and swimming (they said they felt like a plastic soda bottle in the water).

It's a really weird fabric - lycra but tough and very little stretch.

It's not that I think I'd have any use for it but it was cool to see it, like a space suit.

ooooh that's so cool. I've been wondering what they feel like and what they look like without an Olympian in one.

Ha.. brought to mind the Michelin Man, wearing black! :eek:
At least the wetsuits are thick!;)
