If FINA continues to say the suit rules don't apply to Masters,then I think that USMS should take the lead in proposing rules to all other Masters groups.Then I believe there should be a global masters standard.My preference for that would be the FINA/USA-S proposal as I don't want us marginalized nor different rules for combined meets vs Masters only meets.That is just my preference,I'd be OK with just about any GLOBAL standard,but I don't want to be at a disadvantage compared to Masters swimmers elsewhere.
