  • I was just wondering,if USMS OKs full body suits,but fabric only so no current B-70 etc. who is going to make them?B-70s last a long time but lycra suits don't.In 07 I saw a guy at a meet in a full body suit so old it was nearly transparent in the wrong spots.I'd hate to see a situation where lots of swimmers were trying to get "one last swim " out of their irreplaceable suit.It could get ugly.
