For clarity, I put his times and the suit he used to get those times in the description. A few thoughts: 1. I do think he needed an XL in the NV instead of a Large. The Large in the CR seems to fit well though. 2. He is young and this is his first real taper. It is certainly possible that he just didn’t hit his taper well. Every kid is different and some require a shorter/longer taper than others. 3. I don’t want to blame the suit because it could be a variety of factors, but so far he has swam better in the CR instead of the NV.

Coincidentally I have the 2 suits, CR, NV and I made the state meet as a freshman in the 50 and 100 🤷🏼‍♂️. in all seriousness tho the CR is nice and springy but has way more movement while the NV in my opinion could take a meet or 2 to break in so it’s not to tight, but has the ridiculous amount of compression with unlimited movement after it is broken in and will last A LONG LONG time. The 5 series is my favorite personally. I have gone 22.43 and 49.52 in the NV before states tho do it’s definitely reliable.

This is great! It’s hard to judge any tech suit off of one meet and so the more people who provide input the better we all are. Thank you for saying something.

@@Alexkoutris We were actually talking about your comment on the way to practice tonight. I told my son that we should try to break in the the NV at some small USA meets this summer to see if it makes a difference.

@@everettdehaven8645that’s awesome! I know since we are both freshman we are still going to keep growing and all, so it’s better to break it in so it stays fitting right at least in my opinion. I wear a size small and it does get a little bigger as you wear so it more comfy while maintaining most compression.
