OK I was just in the absorbent towel thread and after reading the post that reminded me of the Sammy inventor...
I was wondering what are some of the coolest swimming inventions? Now, not the fads, but all the other stuff...
Sammy towel
goggles
lycra
keep going I know there is a lot more...
Shall I throw a challenge down as question if the new shark skin body suits are not all that they are cracked up to be? Have they been around long enough to have an impact on the sport yet? Are they a fad or the next wave of technology for swimming...

Two of my favorites:
1) The Speedo Stroke Monitor (invented by Bill Geiser). It actually counts your stroke cycles and computes your stroke length, stroke rate, and swimming efficiency. It also has a special timer for repeated timed sets.
2) Fistgloves (invented by Scott Lemley). A fairly inexpensive tool that helps you to improve your grip on the water and your sensory awareness of what your hands are doing.
