Since there has been observation on this forum that most younger female (not male) swimmers at Nationals wore non-tech suits (the 18-24 and 25-29 groups), I'm curious as to why.
Anyone of that younger group look at this board and care to post reasons? Cost? Controversy over "authenticity" of times when fastest suits are banned? Desire to look hot for guys, as one poster suggests?

I wold guess its a shortage of $$, when I was 23 I could barely afford to fill my car up with gas much less buy $500 suit. Hell I'm 33 now and it's hard justify that for a stinkin suit that may be illegal in 6 months!
