I cannot understand the thinking. No matter what they say it is not the swim suit that wins the race. I think Phelps just proved it.
I don't think this meet has proved anything, but it strongly suggests that fast swimmers can swim extremely fast in fast suits. But we knew that, didn't we?
Dennis Baker suggested something interesting on Facebook today. He said he thinks the suits actually help the swimmers with the best technique the most. This is contrary to popular opinion which has been that the suit helps swimmers with poor technique and body position more. I tend to agree.
