Before 2009 Kukors best 200 IM was 2:10.40 World class for sure, but still a cut behind the top women in the event. Today she goes a 2:06.15 and in two days shaves more than a second off the world record. I nominate this swim, just ahead of Bousquets 20.94, as the most ridiculous suited up swim of all time.
There are far more expensive pieces of training technology that some people have access to.
Personally I would separate training from racing. When the swimmers step onto the blocks I want to find out who's the best swimmer. This means who's got the talent, the guts--and, yes--who trained the smartest and hardest. I just think this is totally different than who is wearing the faster suit.
