FINA rules

Why is it that FINA rules apply to short course yards competition? It would have been interesting if consideration was given into doing things differently, particularly since we are the only country where non-metric events are held. Example... the tech suit ban could be revisited. Perhaps backstroke starts should once again allow for toes to be planted over the edge of the gutter?

  • Just curious, why revisit the tech suit ban? It sort of sets a level playing field for all, especially those without the money to pay for the high end tech suits. Isn't it better to have accurate records based on physical performance, skill, and practice rather than how much money you spend on suits?
