No s, m or l, its sizes, i don't know how they measure, the number don't seems to be consistent, could differ from model to model.

Best you go try it out yourself in pavilion.

I bought the one up to knee. Prefer that over the boxer style or trunks style.

from DCrainmaker site.

anyone plan to get their hands on this new garmin HRM device

Any good brand other than Speedo ?

TYR? Arena?

No experience with TYR but i use an Arena goggle, served me well.

Didn't like the material of their swim pants though.

Depends on what accessories you are looking for, for goggles and swimsuits is better to go for speedo and arena. If you are on a budget you can go for TYR too. I'm not a big fan of TYR goggles but their swimwear isn't bad though. Avoid Ogival brand as their quality is really bad.

If you are looking for good quality googles, you can try Aqua Sphere Kayenne Goggle, it has the most positive reviews on Amazon and even surpass Speedo and Arena.

Hello, I'm new in this thread here. Hope can learn from you guys.

btw, MSN pool supposedly National Sport Complex in Setiawangsa, have really hard hours and really funny operation lol. Ok so it only open Tuesday- Thursday 2-4.30 pm, Friday 2.45- 4.30. Saturday- Sunday have morning session at least 10-12.30pm and 2-4.30pm BUT because they work office hours, funny thing is, if you want to swim weekend, you have to buy tickets in advanced during office hour Mon-Fri. I called and said, how, because I work, then they say, that's how it is, because no staff can issue receipt on the weekends.




on weekend, I went once and apparently there is some people working as part time, maybe lifeguard, they stay in the room and only occasionally come out to see swimmers.

But the real kill is this, the pool is 50m, which is good for laps, but, the final 20m is the deep end with 5m depth, sooooo, because they 'afraid' of swimmers safety, they block with line to 30m only. And you cannot go to the deep part. Meaning if you want to do lap, at 30m you don't have a wall to turn They say because if people who can swim go, people who cannot swim also go and get in trouble. ha ha ha!

So I ask, why, they said the deep one is for when scuba divers or some people booking for training, then only can use.

Such a pity because it's a pool nearby me and nice pool too, but can't be fully utilised.

Exactly my sentiments!

It was such a nice pool, but the operating hours.. 2 - 4:30 pm outdoor? Its so freaking hot!

Sounds more like a pool for parents or housewife to bring their kids to.

I live so nearby, don't even have the opportunity to use it on weekend due to the ticketing. I have to drive all the way to bukit jalil to swim.

This sports complex is so underutilised, its a waste of public fund.

any shop to intro for TVR and goggle you intro?

besides speedo outlet, any other shop sell speedo?

Also not kid friendly pool if you meant housewives bring kids to splash around as they dont have kiddie pool. That's the full big sized pool, unless if kids can swim laps already then can use. Yeah like you said, In short underutilised and was te of public fund.

Such a shame, I go to PJpalm to swim as I use public transport, so easy by lrt. But on weekends at nights weekdays, supercrowded, they accept too many booked activities in the pool.

For TYR goggles you can get them over here:

For Aqua Sphere kayenne goggle you can visit any Rip curl branches in Malaysia, they should have them:

As for Speedo, unfortunately no, but you can try buying them online but is not gonna be cheap though.

Some shopping complex has the brands you mentioned.

TYR has sections in Jusco midvalley, Jusco AEON Wangsa Maju and Royal Sport house.

Speedo got some sport shop carry, I saw in Nusentral, forgot the outlet name but it's a shop like the Royal Sport House which sell running shoes, tracksuits etc. usually the swimming section is small but they have Speedo. One more shop I saw Speedo is the Sport Direct in Sunway Putra Mall.

However in these shops the range is limited, so you need to go see what you want there.

Best to still go to speedo outlet, they have more ranges of swim wear.

I personally like speedo swimwear over arena for normal swimmers.

TYR only seen in royal sporting house or stadium R so far.

Bukit Jalil is convenient too, public transport to bukit jalil station.

I know trainers or coach teaches at PJ Palm though, contemplated taking up some lessons to improve my strokes.

How was the pool in PJ Palm? Standard olympic?

Oh from Bukit Jalil LRT, is it walking distance to the pool? If it is then I can try some days. do they allow fins in the pool?

PJPalm is not standard olympic, length wise 50m but width is 18m. the white line 15m marker is also at 17m instead of 15m. but for leisure like me, oklah, enough facilities.

I train for diving so the deep part is convenient and Pjpalm is the only public pool so far that allows fins and such.

PJ Palms... first impressions irked me. Half the pool is gone reserved for "lessons" which I see a few kids at the side chatting like in mamak,

the other half is overloaded like a sausage fest.

Should ask for 50% discount from ticket counter.

Yes, I agree with you in this one. Too many booked activities and leaving public only little space, thus it's pretty impossible to swim on weekends. But for me that's one of possible choice due to more flexible opening hours compared to public pools. The rate is pretty expensive too with the new management given the space of the pool public can use.

But since I work irregular hours, I have the luxury to go on weekday on times where the pool is pretty much empty, only occassionally got scuba divers doing lessons on those days.

But the pool I like the most is UM pool but close these days to dont know when.

I remember one time they let a polo game book their deep end, a mat salleh want to do laps, of course cannot until 50m, and plus the other half is also for lessons and scuba. The mat salleh got angry and go out of the pool and ask for his money back. I don't blame him.

From googlemap it seems like only 700m away from bukit jalil lrt station - star lrt or watever they call it.

I still prefer Bukit Jalil.. the best so far..

Sadly Melawati club has gone bust.. otherwise it was also another good one.. near my house.

Bro, i've heard about the Aqua Sphere K180+ and Kayenne googles as i was searching for good quality goggles after my Speedo Fastskin3 has been worn out. Aqua Sphere, the new brand that rises along with Michael Phelps as ambassador as he had ended his long history partnership with Speedo since the age of 15 (Sydney 2000 Olympics). I'm currently wanted to buy either K180+ (if available) or Kayenne. May i know where i can walk in to purchase in Malaysia? Amazon doesn't ship Aqua Sphere products outside North America.

Not sure about other places though, but in KL you can get it in any rip curl outlets

one in KLCC:
