FastSkin FSII: Women’s Raze Recordbreaker Kneeskin and Men's Raze Jammer

The FastSkin FII swimming suits were designed and manufactured by the worlds leading swim equipment manufacturer the Speedo. These sophisticated suits mimic the shark skin of having low friction surface in water. And as you probably already know, the shark is the fastest fish in the sea reaching estimated speeds of up to 95 kilometers per hour (which is around 60 miles per hour). Basically, they take swimming to a whole new level. These innovative suits were first introduced back in 2004. They are the same as their predecessor, the Fastskin, however, featuring many enhancements.

Women’s FastSkin FSII Raze Recordbraker Kneeskin is unbelievably tight. It has a legacy of being a record-breaker piece of swimmers’ equipment. It’s basically a professional high-tech racing swimsuit that has been developed and manufacturer for best results and made to fit like a dream. Needless to say, the fabrics and seams are positioned to maximize the flow of water over your body to reduce drag and help hold your body in a more streamlined shape. The super stretch thread is highly respected because of its elasticity and fitness as well as strength. The freedom of movement is great since there is nothing around the calves yet still enough to cover your chest. Although this swimsuit is great for professional swimmers, the FSII is also practical and functional and are great for amateurs.

It’s always good to know the fabric composition. It is made out of 75 percent polyester and 25 percent elastane. Such use of combination of materials allows increased performance and flexibility while maintaining their durability. And since appearance is important for women, Speedo has made them to not only look good but to give the wearer a fashionable look. No wonder they have become so popular that many consider them to be an essential part of the standard swimmers kit. Fabrics are soft yet have a fair amount of body, and have a pleasant hand or as some people like to say, they have a nice ‘feel’ as a whole.

Men's New FSII Raze Jammer is developed with racing in mind. Basically, it has same features as the Women’s Kneeskin. Engineers have made it especially for professionals striving for perfection. Also, there are many other people who could take advantage of this revolutionary suit, such as instructors, lifeguards, pool managers, attendants and on-site maintenance personnel as well as other aquatics staff.

The only downside of these essential pieces of equipment for any professional swimmer can be the price. Especially Women’s FSII Kneeskin is especially pricey. With a price tag of over $220 they are not for everyone.

In today's competitive sport’s arenas, however, every advantage is welcome. Men’s Fastskin FSII can be found at more affordable prices (around $130) while remaining an excellent investment.
