Should USMS follow "suit" ?

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? John Smith

    Because it is just Masters swimming. Because FINA doesn't care. Because nobody in the world outside of Masters swimming will care one way or the other. Why are Masters world records recognized for arbitrary five year age groups? Hate to say this Gull, but no one but swimmers care about swimming in the end. It's just a fact.
