Tips for Tech-ing Up: Advice from ‘The Swimsuit Guy’ for Championship Season<\/strong><\/p>\n

After five months of stress and hard work, we\u2019ve almost made it: championship season is right around the corner. From the club level all the way up to NCAAs, the crux of the short course season lies in February. And as many know all too well, as the stakes rise in swimming, so does the presence of \u201ctech suits.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s become traditional for athletes over the age of 12 to invest in a suit for their championship meet, looking to ensure their fastest swim when it matters most. But with ever-shifting prices and options, the search has become harder than ever. YouTube celebrity \u201cThe Swimsuit Guy<\/a>,\u201d a.k.a Sonny Trigg, does his best to break it down, posting weekly videos examining the latest on the tech suit market. I spoke with Sonny on what makes a great tech suit, and how swimmers should invest for championship season 2025.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Beginning Your Search<\/b><\/h3>\n

When starting a search for a tech suit, one thing that stands out is the overwhelming amount of options. Each top brand promotes 3-4 suits ranging in price, all selling you on their \u201cnew technology.\u201d But according to Sonny, the brands are a lot more similar than initially appears.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cEach company these days seemingly has at least one suit with a looser, more comfortable fit, and a more sprint-based technical suit,\u201d explained Trigg. \u201cThey\u2019re more similar than ever before, making it hard to make a wrong choice.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The content creator and coach explained this as a product of a lack of progress in the technology behind the suits since 2016. Trigg pointed to Mizuno\u2019s GX Sonic III as the last suit to truly change the industry, with its compression and taping patterns making the suit more water-repellant than ever before.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt was the last suit that truly made a difference,\u201d Trigg said. \u201cIt raised the floor for tech suits over the past decade, but the ceiling hasn\u2019t been raised since.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Suits like TYR\u2019s Venzo\/Shockwave, Arena\u2019s Primo, and Speedo\u2019s Pure Intent have looked to replicate Mizuno\u2019s success, implementing similar technology to compete, according to Trigg. The suit was better for shorter races, with more compression (or tightness) leading to improved power. But it isn\u2019t the only influential suit on the market. Trigg pointed to Arena\u2019s \u201cCarbon\u201d series launched in 2012 as a revolutionary suit as well.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe carbons had both a market appeal and great longevity in performance,\u201d Trigg said. \u201cIt has made them incredibly popular.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Suits like the TYR Avictor and Speedo Pure Valor, among others, follow this model. The suits had comparatively less compression, allowing swimmers to be more comfortable in longer races, but still enough to lead to success.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Given this factor, the suit expert believes a lot comes to personal preference. But in a sport with a margin of error as small as swimming, there were still some factors Trigg believed to make a significant difference.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

High Waisted vs. Low Waisted\/Closed Back vs. Open Back<\/b><\/h3>\n

When it comes to tech suits, suits generally come in two different cuts: high-waisted or low-waisted for men, and closed back or open back for women. High-waisted suits for men provide more suit higher up on the swimmer\u2019s body. Low-waisted suits usually sit near a swimmer\u2019s hips, offering more comfort. Women\u2019s suits are similar, with closed back suits providing more coverage and open back suits providing more comfort. But to Trigg, the difference in coverage is an undeniable opportunity for improved performance.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIn a sport where marginal gains matter, that much more coverage can make a difference,\u201d spelled out Trigg. \u201cI strongly believe swimmers should choose high waisted\/close back suits, unless they find them unbearably uncomfortable.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Comfort is always a priority, especially on race day. But in a sport where milliseconds mean everything, more coverage seems like a key to speed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Protecting Your Suit<\/b><\/h3>\n

Choosing a suit is a big decision, but the choice won\u2019t matter if you don’t properly taken care of the suit. Tech suits have a limited shelf life, generally ranging from 10-12 swims according to SwimOutlet. \u201cIt\u2019s important to limit your time in the suit, and take care of it afterward,\u201d Trigg said, citing suits he\u2019s had last for \u201cyears and years\u201d by giving them proper care. For more information on how to take care of a tech suit, see our guide from August: <\/span>https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/10-ways-to-increase-the-life-of-your-racing-suit\/<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

PFA Chemicals<\/b><\/h3>\n

Many suits developed over the past decade contain PFA chemicals, a.k.a \u201cForever Chemicals,\u201d in order to make them more water resistant. However, the chemicals carry a plethora of health risks, including developmental issues in children, immune system impacts, and cancer. It\u2019s unclear if tech suits present the same amount of danger, given the limited amount of time they are used. But some suits are now unable to be shipped to New York or California, due to a ban on the chemical within these states. Make sure to check if your suit is available in your current state. All suits should also have a description of their materials listed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

So What\u2019s The Best Choice?<\/b><\/h3>\n

Despite his belief in the similarity of today\u2019s suits, to Trigg there were two clear standouts. The YouTuber pointed to the entire Mizuno line as superb, but had a special affinity for the <\/span>Mizuno GX Sonic 6 NV. <\/span><\/a>\u201cThe suit practically kicks for you,\u201d he described, with its high levels of compression and specially designed tapering making a difference. The GX Sonic 6 NV retails for $410.<\/span><\/p>\n

Another favorite of Trigg\u2019s was the new<\/span> Arena Primo<\/span><\/a>, the brand\u2019s first non-carbon flagship suit in some time. \u201cEveryone, from the world\u2019s fastest sprinters, to its best distance swimmers have worn this suit,\u201d he emphasized, pointing to the suit\u2019s comfort despite its high compression levels. \u201cIt\u2019s perhaps the best all around suit,\u201d said the \u201cSwimsuit Guy,\u201d making it a worthy buy. The suit retails for $410.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cIt\u2019s so important to have more than one tech suit, so that you can maximize their shelf life,\u201d suggested Trigg, \u201ceven if that means not getting the best on market.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
