Yes, I got 2 suits from www.turboshop.es

They have really cool patterns, all the waterpolo suits are fully lined front and back. And the fabric is kind of thick. To me personally, it feels conservative, but they are made for waterpolo and need to be strong.

I got size small and that is about the same waist as a 28-30 nike.

I hope that helps.

Great strong suit and really comfortable fit. I have worn them for swim practice and trips to the lake / beach.

Thanks for the web site JohnC. The price is in euros, but much cheaper than the site waterpolosport.com which has the same items, but its prices are in British pounds.

Thanks Matt,I had read the other thread, and I had been to the turbo site. I actually just got an email back from them about a Canadian sales rep - yay!
I'd really like to get us into these, it's a good brand and they have a great product.
If I do, I'll post pics of the team and I in our suits for ya'll ;)

I'd say they run true to size. I am a 28 and small fits me.
