Interesting video on floswimming. Sean Hutchison at King Aquatics is having his team wear tech suits during workout: www.floswimming.org/.../84660-everyday-is-suit-day
Looks like Ande is on the cutting edge again.

The difference is in the air these suits trap.Take a Nero Comp and wring it out carefully underwater.It will now slowly sink.Now wring it out carefully in the air and set it in the water and watch it float.The material sinks so FINA says "legal' but the suits float in competition conditions.
It seems like the trapped air theory ought to be reasonably easy to test scientifically, is there a reason no one has done so?
