WTF?

I guess this means that "anything goes" in masters, unless your national federation places its own limitations on approved suits.
Once the 2010 rules are finalized, I can't imagine many masters swimmers will still want new suits that don't comply with those rules. I think most of us take ourselves seriously enough not to want a distinction between what we are allowed to wear and what the other competitive organizations are allowed to wear. I'm glad I get to keep using my current suit for the rest of the year, and look forward to getting a FINA compliant suit this winter.
