squat suit question

[OreoPL]

hey i am looking into getting a squat suit. this is my first attempt at getting one and i am lost there are so many out there. i dint know what to look for and where to begin. can you guys reccomend any good ones for a person just starting out. i am 6 foot 2 and squat wide stance. i only weigh 180 but am planning on bulking back up to 200 soon. will that mean i will need a new one in a few months. also do i ned to get the groove breifs to?

hmmm that is great question i forgot that not all suits are allowed in all federations. i hadnt decided yet i cant find any meets in my area . so i jsut wanted to get one for now to train in and help protect my hips on speed days. more of jsut a tool for now till i find some near by meets to go watch and then hopefully enter in somethin this far. but i have seen some meets agbout 20 miles away taht are apa or usapl so i'll decide later. for now it will just be to help me not injur myself.

I'm pretty sure your in a pretty good PL area. I believe the USAPL and the APF/AAPF are around their.
