Is it for proper pool swimming or beach?

search for tri-suit - they are for triathlons, but be careful you don't end up with one with a padded arse too! (some do and some don't)

Numberfour · 23/03/2010 22:37

thanks,everyone.

yes, plumsykes, that's what i am after. no idea what is up with my bloody pc. keeps on popping back to MN when i open your link.

for proper swimming, cyb, so I do not have to dive for my towel when i get out the water.

thelunar66, those are lovely, but i am def not that cool and i would look like a prat in those!!! if only i could wear them!

tri suits - they are for completing triathlons or aquathons as the material drys quickly - as you dont change from swim to run and you always swim first in weither event - you jsut pop a shirt over the top and it looks liek shorts and keeps the tops of your legs warner
