aight its really tight
I'm skinny and got a size 28
it took me like 20min to get it on
I was worried because it was 3 inches above my ankles and 4 inches under my natal
I managed to get it on without ripping but im worried that a 30 would be too big
any answer by someone who knows what im talking about would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

sound like a good fit, use a plastic bag on your foot to slide it on easier and quicker. The FS Pro suits should fit well above the ankles. That is the way they were designed.

Yeah, that's going to happen. My first fastskin (FS I), felt ungodly tight compared to other suits, but that's the entire purpose. They'll stretch some too as they age. However, I think you might need to revise your technique to put on the suit if it took you 20 minutes. It sounds like it fits correctly, based on the dimensions you gave. Try bunching the legs up so that instead of pulling the entire leg on, you can just unroll it. If you're a breaststroker, the 28 might be a bad situation. You could always try a 30 at a swim shop to get a better idea if you're second-guessing the 28.

That sounds about right. I ordered a 28 and it felt small so ordered a 30 and it was loose behind my knees. Stick with the 28 they are supposed to be that tight. And fyi the FS pro is the fastest suit on the market in my opinion.

yah im a girl, so putting on my first fastskin took me like 25 minutes cuz i had to get it past my waist. over time it will stretch out and it will take less time to put on. you can always go to a store and try on a 30 to see if it would fit. a suggestion for putting on the fs would be to put plastic bags over you feet so that the suit slides on easier and then you could just slip the bags out when you're done. :D
