arena Veloce Jammer Review – Is This the Next Fastest Tech Suit?
In this video, I put the brand-new Arena Veloce jammer to the test in real races and break down whether it delivers genuine performance benefits. Alongside my own racing experience, I also gather feedback from world-class swimmers to get a complete picture of how this suit performs at the highest level. The Arena Veloce is one of the most anticipated racing jammers in recent years, designed to offer elite-level performance with improved comfort, compression, and usability. I look closely at how the suit feels in competition, how it behaves under race conditions, and whether its design translates into real-world speed. This review goes beyond first impressions, focusing on how the Arena Veloce performs when it actually matters — on race day — and how it compares to other modern tech suits used by competitive swimmers.

Are Tech Suits Actually Getting Faster?
Are modern tech suits actually getting faster, or have we reached the limit? In this video, I break down whether racing suits are still improving and take a first look at the newly released Mizuno GX Sonic Royal. Tech suits have evolved massively over the years, but many swimmers now question whether new releases genuinely offer performance gains or if improvements are mostly marketing. I explore how tech suits have changed, what really matters for speed, and where the GX Sonic Royal fits into the current landscape. The video then moves into a first look at the Mizuno GX Sonic Royal, discussing design philosophy, construction, and how it compares to previous generations of racing suits. In this video: – Are tech suits actually getting faster? – How modern tech suits differ from older models – The most iconic suits in the last 20 years – First look at the Mizuno GX Sonic Royal – What really matters when choosing a racing suit – Are new releases worth the upgrade? 🔥 Video Sponsor – Buyee This video is sponsored by Buyee, a proxy service that lets you buy Japanese-only swim gear directly from Japan.

I turned 30, had five weeks out of the pool, and hadn’t swum a personal best in years. This video follows my return to racing to find out whether I’m now too old to set a PB in competitive swimming. After the end of the swim season and a holiday away from the pool, an easy swim unexpectedly turned into a last-minute race entry. With personal bests in the 100 and 200 metre backstroke dating back to 2016 and 2012, this meet became a genuine test of whether improvement is still possible at 30. The video builds toward race day, exploring the mental side of ageing in sport, managing expectations, and answering the question many athletes eventually face: are you ever too old to set a personal best? In this video: – Returning to the pool after time off – Turning 30 and racing again – Last-minute race entry – 100m and 200m backstroke races – Chasing a PB after years without one 🔥 Video Sponsor – @SuuntoTV Christmas Special Suunto Christmas Special Offers: Up to 40% off on selected products on their website and Amazon + free $49 strap for VERTICAL 2, RACE 2, RACE, RACE S, VERTICAL (Dec 8 - 25) Unwrap the gifts of Suunto Life wears by meeting our order threshold of $300 🔥 Amazon：https://amzn.to/49UQ1qw Suunto US Store：https://us.suunto.com/s/R2-tssg 🏊♂️ Train With Me Personalised swim training plans built around your goals: 👉 https://www.theswimsuitguy.com/swim-programs 👙 Find Your Perfect Tech Suit Not sure which racing suit is right for you?
