WTF? www.swimmingworldmagazine.com/.../21392.asp I guess this means that "anything goes" in masters, unless your national federation places its own limitations on approved suits.

  • The better comparison is that FINA doesn't do drug testing of Masters swimmers. So apparently we can wear whatever we want and take whatever we want, whereas Olympic-caliber swimmers can do neither. Using PEDs is against Masters rules.We don't test and many things the IOC considers PEDs are legitimate health treatments for us,but that doesn't mean we approve of doping.
