wondering....
 

If one wears a rubber suit, does one bounce off the pool walls?

what to wear....
 

No, but I've heard it said that wearing a rubber swim cap is a good substitute for the tumble turn to gain advantage in relay competition.

Oops again
 

Byron, point well taken. I have GOT to make it a habit of looking at the dates of original posts before I reply.

But you DO reply - and that's a good thing for a forum.
This is perhaps becoming a victim of its own success in one way, as posts build up on interesting threads and new members (and not only new) have more catching-up to do when they open it.

I did purchase some suits in the last two years!
 

Funny you saw noticed how long ago this post was originally made. Yes, within the last few years, I've bought water polo suits and they are good. They fit differently that your standard swim briefs.

One interesting point. A suit made by Arena has two side seams sewn on each side. One is vertical and another is diagonal. I think it's not just a decoration. There's often tugging going on in a WP match, so I think these are sewn to keep things snug.

:) The diagonal seam I had not spotted - I will leave tw to confirm you are no doubt right there.

You're right Byron, I do reply, maybe a couple of years late, but nobody ever said that I am reticent about expressing myself.
