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?

some would say one-handed turns or flip turns in *** are merely future variations of what has already happened to the sport. Do you think it was a poor path for FINA to allow a dolphin kick on a pullout? We don't touch the wall on back turns anymore and now there is a ridiculous track and field mechanism working its way onto the blocks.
And to date the elites and masters have gone lock-step on every change. Why be different now?
