I generaly swim at lunch. I squeeze my suit as dry as possible when exiting the shower. Then I place it in the middle of my towel and fold the towel around it. At night I switch to a fresh towel and my suit is no worse for wear.
If I don't swim I drape my towel over the back seats in my truck to dry. Generally right after work it is nice and dry and gets packed back into the bag.

What I do looks similar to yours -- my car has a bunch of little hooks built into it, and I hang a string between them and put my towel and suit over them. It gets crowded on the "line" when my husband swims as well and we have to fit 2 towels and 2 suits. But often he goes home and hangs our stuff up there before heading back to work.
I have found it leads to a stinky car sometimes though!

Suit spinner + quick dry suit (speedo endurance plus, I think). No issues.

The suit spinners make my suits wear out faster it seems. I only use them once the suit is about dead anyways.

leave it in your towel and hang it up when you get home--it will be almost dry anyway by then.

Wow! I am impressed with that set up. I would recommend the suit spinners though. I haven't found they were my suits out too fast. Then again, I also were a drag suit over my speedo and those things are indestructible and you can't see the speedo under them.

Huh. I don't have that issue. Maybe you just have a turbo powered spinner at your gym?

i began swimming before work and came across a dilemma. what's the best way to dry my suit and towel while i am at work. i didn't want to just lay it in the bed of my car and i also didn't want to put it on a hanger and drop water on my faberic...so i came up with this idea. i cut a wire hanger into hooks, then put them on some suction cups i had, then used my kite string to make a line. and below is my final product. this got me thinking what other people have done to address this problem.
