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
They should just implement the ban immediately for SCY meets. It's going to happen, so why not nip it in the bud before too many meets are held?
By the way, I swam a meet in briefs for the first time this last weekend and went pretty significantly slower than I did last year in my B70. There are many factors that could have contributed to the decline, but I don't doubt for a second that the suit was a factor. I definitely feel the pain of those that want to keep the suits, but I am going to make peace with the new paradigm as I believe it's the right one.
