USA Swimming proposes rule limiting suits

www.swimmingworldmagazine.com/.../19679.asp The most substantial change, of course, is that suits would no longer be allowed to extend past the knee. My personal opinion is this is sort of an arbitrary change. What really should be changed--if anything--is what types of materials are allowed and maybe testing protocol to approve a suit. I don't really think requiring suits to end at the knees would affect much.

  • I will agree by no means is it cheap. i should have said least expensive..... as most other teams have dues also travel expenses parties shirts etc... your down to the gear cost though if you find the right team, sometimes you luck out and equipment is provided.... but yes its still not "cheap" Ill try to pick my words better next time.:) Least expensive?! Not a chance ... between my kid's swimming bill and my own swimming bill ... that's a lot of cash. If you want cheap, run.
