    USA Swimming position is "What we're supporting is legistlation that would, for male athletes have suits that would not go above the navel or below the knees and for Are they proposing female swimmers to wear strapless tech suits? Why is there this push to limit coverage? I don't understand this thinking. If the suit makers are given a clear set of rules to follow in regards to the material that can and cannot be used in making suits, what is so wrong with suits that cover the torso down to the ankles or suits that go waist to ankle?
