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
Watching the World Cup races - all tech suits across the board (Well until Phelps shows up at least ) - People can tell me whatever they want. Swimmers like the Tech suits - if it was up to the swimmers, they would keep all current suits. Since Masters swimming is really run by the actual swimmers and not officials and coaches .....
I don't know.... As long as they are legal, people at the elite level HAVE to wear them to be competitive (unless they are Phelps, I guess, and maybe even then--how fast would his 200 Free be if he wore a jaked?). I don't think it says anything about whether they like or want to wear them. We have no way to know. What I do know is that I am an actual swimmer and I can afford the tech suits but I don't want them (at least, not if the "elites" don't wear them). I know many swimmers on this very message board who feel the same way (and many that don't).
