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

  • Pull the band-aid right off, say I! No way, man. The slow transition for me: I just got a decently priced (I think) pair of B70 legskins in the mail today (All American Swim) and will compete in those this fall. I'll then switch to jammers for SCY. Unless, of course, FINA reneges again; then I'll try to quickly scoop up a full body suit for SCY season.:)
