Hooked on suits too late!

Being an average swimmer and not owning a high tech suit I have never cared about what suits others wear. All I wanted to do was swim my own race, although I will admit that winning is fun. However, at a inter-squad meet this past Friday I borrowed a old fastskin hi-neck kneeskin from my coach. WOW!! What a feeling!! Swam five events in one hr. (yes I know, a lot for 1 hr.). Swam "masters" personal best in two events. Swam a lifetime PB in one event. The other two events were very repectable swims for me. I am not bragging, just wanted to find an audience that would understand. Wish I would have bought a suit earlier.

    Everyone is making it sound like "the ban" has actually happened. Well, I may have stars in my eyes, but the decision to ban tech suits has not happened yet. What if FINA decides they are OK for Masters. What if FINA decides they are not OK, but USMS decides they can be used for yards. I'm just sayin'..........what if............:banana: that's been my mantra for months... they're not banned yet! We're all betting on FINA to make a decision we think makes sense at this point, that's proven to be very not their style. Just in case, I'm looking for a meet the weekend before they meet in January :D
