A Fastskin is a suit made by Speedo, with material that absorbs a lot less water, (if any), and is designed to make the swimmer have less resistance, thus making them go faster.

What is a good fastskin for the breaststroke I am mainly a breaststroker and I just bought a FSII. Is that a good suit or not for breaststroke?
Okay, when you're a breaststroker, always buy a knee-suit FastSkin. A knee-suit stream lines the water in a way that you want for breaststroke. It also gives you more freedom in moving your knees for breaststroke. A full body suit is sometimes not suitable because it might be uncomfortable to move your legs in the frog-like motion that is the breaststroke kick. There are specific types of FastSkin for different strokes. Full-body is for backstroke and butterfly (for butterfly it might be better if you get a legsuit with just the torso instead of the arms also), knee-suits for breaststroke, and for freestyle, any type of FastSkin works.

Yes they are! they are only aloud them up to there knees NOT to there ankles.I'm a different person from this guy ^, but he/she is right they are now generally banned but to be honest, if its club championships or a minor competition, you can get away with wearing fastskin leg lengths, but I'm not sure about sharksuits etc, they might be more strict!
Is fastskin 2 approved by fina?
On May 21, 2009, FINA published a list of 202 officially approved swimsuits for FINA sanctioned competition. Fastskin 2 was NOT on the list and so was not allowed. Effective June 1, 2009 USA Swimming amended its swimsuit rules to allow only the FINA approved suits in USA Swimming sanctioned competition, but with exceptions for what were called "Traditional Suits". For boys, these were defined as not extending above the navel or below the knees, and for girls, as not extending below the pelvis or past the shoulders, and not covering the neck. Since the Fastskin II suits generally don't meet the requirements of these exceptions, and since they weren't on the FINA list, on June 1, 2009 they becamse illegal at just about any swim meet in America. HOWEVER . . . along with the original list of approved suits came a promise that an updated list of suits that were still being considered would be released in June. On June 22, 2009, FINA kept that promise, releasing the updated list, which DOES include the FastSkin II suits! SO, the ANSWER is . . . YES, FASTSKIN 2 SUITS ARE APPROVED BY FINA. Hallelujah!
