The FINA Coaches association is recommending in January that

Nothing more special than a dirt cheap $260 jammer, is there? :rolleyes:

Will $ 250 jammers do me as well as a full body FS2 ??

I say keep the records as is. You aren't going to remember who wore what suit unless the races were televised. Someone will break them and they aren't going to take a generation to break them.

Utterly ridiculous. I'm with wookiee. These records were set legally. You shouldn't get to rewrite history.

The records have been established legally. Therefore, there is no reason to remove them from the books or set a separate list.

The FINA Coaches are overstepping their authority. Why would they care about the WR's set in certain types of suits, unless they have some type of hidden interest in the matter? Unfortunately, since they can't and won't explain the reasons that they think that this is proper, it will end up in court. It isn't fair to anyone who wore an Arena, Jaked or Blue 70, not just the WR holders. Are they going to disallow Masters Top Ten times too!

I wish I could use harder words than 'boneheaded' and 'stupid' (words that would get this post banned from the forums) for how *******, *********, ******** this is. yeah, they're a bunch of asterisks all right!

no matter what happens, we will still be able to look down our noses at ...nascar I'm gonna kick your ass for this comment next week chaos. Coming to the international mecca of racing and talking hateful about our beloved nascar. Back on topic - this is completely ridiculous. Ban the suits, get it over with, move on. The problem with this whole argument is that is presupposes the records will remain intact when, in fact, only time will tell on that.

If fina goes through with this bonehead move, then will everyone at the age group and masters level that held records on Jan.1,2008 start demanding to have their records back? This is move will make swimming a laughing stock of sport.
