Not sure if it's the suit, the Olympic year, or a combo of both - but I do get the impression that the LZR racer is the fastest suit out there. It's not yet available, but I am sure some people will pull some strings and show up with the suit in Austin.
I think we should all agree to ban the suit from Austin and spread the word to everybody. I know it's not binding - but I think we are all "old enough" to work on the honor system.
Any thoughts ?
Why on earth would I complain about paying an additional $550 for a suit that might improve my times from previous years? Doesn't make sense to me. I won't join the ban. In fact, I'm trying my contacts now to see if I can get my hands on one for May.
But, if that doesn't work, maybe I'll get out my old wooden skiis, my wooden tennis racket with a small sweet spot, my old steel 40 pound mountain bike, my persimmon wood drivers that don't correct for my swing and, last but not least, my wool swim suit that belonged to my grandfather. It puzzles me why swimming seems to have the most vocal opponents to change.
Go Mel! I'd like a signed photo. Hey, maybe you'll grab a coveted nomination as Hottest Masters Swimmer in that get up.
