If the full body rubber suits do end up getting banned, why should USMS follow their lead on this issue? (i.e. assuming the suits would continue to be manufactured).
Isn't Masters mostly for each individual to pursue what they want and the level they want out of the sport?
If the full body suit is preferred by many USMS participants, why not satisfy the base by keeping it available?
What's really the point of forcing old USMS swimmers out of their girdles if FINA bans them?

Nothing good comes when the rocket scientists start mucking around in pool water.
or anywhere out side of space -that's how we got Tang and freeze dried ice cream. Nothing good comes of either of those.
I just wish they (FINA) would make rational decision - I know that would be the first time. I can't afford a full body of any of them (TYR, Speedo, Arena) even the first or secong gen suits - plus I'm simply not fast enough to warrant using one. But I think they shoula allow legs versions of whatever permeable textile suit they come up with - maybe something in a worsted wool.
