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

  • two points: In many open water competitions, there are two sets of results, one for regular suits and one for wetsuits. I just told my wife that some masters swimmers like technical suits because it hides their bellies. she said, "yeah, but the downside it that it makes you look like a stuffed porpoise."
