      Looks to me like she had just modified her suit to avoid any allegations that it may tend to trap air. I wholeheartedly support her home remedy efforts to legalise her suit, and were I officiating the meet, I'd have let her swim. Of course, I would have been forced to observe her very carefully throughout the race to ensure she was in compliance with all the other rules.

      Looks to me like she had just modified her suit to avoid any allegations that it may tend to trap air. Maybe the problem was that it DID trap air, and the suit was inflated beyond maximum capacity.

      Can she sue the suit maker? The sales of this suit will go down.

      Wow... this is a direct result of the "absolutely only one suit" ruling! Perhaps she should file "suit" against FINA for pain and suffering!?

      I understand why she would be embarrassed and not want to swim.I can understand that swimming in it would slow her down,but under what rule was she DQ'd.
