the LZR is basically an automatic 4% speed increase just from reduced drag. its the first race suit to incorporate neoprene, which was almost not allowed by FINA. i cant WAIT to wear one at conference this year, gonna be sweet.

Phelps is pretty good though.

and no, there arent just other people in the world who can swim faster than he can... swimming isnt the same as running. it takes a lot more practice...
