Looks as if ALL "techsuits" are now illegal. Except for those wearing the suits at World Championships this year...

I'm all for the "textile" only rule.
But I've said before and I'll say again, I think it is gender discrimination to limit coverage. A woman can gain advantages by a suit covering her torso, and so should a man. Either that, or women gotta start showing off the goods while wearing briefs/jammers only.
I'm with you on that one, Muppet. That's been my take all along - have one standard for both genders.

I could agree with "textile" only as long as men can have suits that cover torso as well.
I doubt you could hoist these cannons on your own.
chaos - keep your opinions to yourself, for the love of Dolphin 2!!
the only thing that you have that is the size of a cannon is your head. it resembles a cannon ball.
if you are referring to your arms, they look more like match sticks.

I'm sorry but in what swimming events do women compete against men?
Looks like people have been REALLY swimming regardless of tech suits or not....after all the sport is called swimming
You mean we won't have to go back to dog paddling, like swimike thinks?
I hadn't browsed the forums, and really hadn't looked at the news during the day today. So I was extremely happy to hear this story as I left work this afternoon:
