What should USMS do about the suits?

Allen Stark
I started a similar poll before,but time has changed things and I thought since USMS is going to have to do something definitive so they should have some input from the forumites

  • The recommendation was, I believe, crafted by the USMS Rules Committee. To sum up: -- textile only (to be defined later, I guess) -- same coverage for men and women: knees to shoulder, no sleeves or neck -- zippers allowed -- limits of thickness (0.8mm) and buoyancy (0.5N) and permeability of material (80L/m^2/s) It sounds like a pretty reasonable recommendation. I think USMS should do whatever FINA does, but I think FINA ultimately will adopt something along the same lines as this recommendation. Thanks for the update, Tim
