  • Paul, the USMS interpretation leads me to believe the Blue Seventy Point Zero did not need to be submitted for testing since it launched before September 30th, 2007 #1. NEW U.S.M.S. SWIMWEAR INTERPRETATION FINA approval or rejection of new swimwear introduced after September 30, 2007, will be accepted by U.S. Masters Swimming for U.S.M.S. sanctioned and recognized competition. The following interpretation regarding the use of two suits during competition is effective immediately. This interpretation conforms to the recent interpretations issued by FINA (03/15/09) and USA Swimming (03/18/09). QUESTIONS & ANSWERS: 1. Question: Can I wear a regular racing suit that is not a body suit? Answer: Yes, suits introduced prior to September 30, 2007, are legal for U.S.M.S. competition. My understanding is that the B70 Nero Comp is no longer 'legal' but the PointZero3 is still 'legal', am I wrong?
