Hey can any one give me some info as to a list of suits that are legal for 2010! I have not found any info that is of help. I am doing a 10k race in Aug and don't want to get DQ because of suit stuff. I have a Blueseventy 10k that i did race in last year but think they might be off the list. ANY help any one can give me would be great!!!!

Belated Newsflash: Nothing has changed for 2010 USMS Open Water Swimwear rules! Nothing will change when/if FINA updates its open water swimwear rules in June!
An example, if you wore a B70 for last years USMS 5K National Championship in Chicago "Big Shoulders" which was legal, you can wear a B70 for this years scheduled USMS National Open Water Championships. However, I'd attempt to get a formal yea or nea from the race director. Remember many of the big and little open water races have no USMS affiliation. For example the La Jolla Rough Water swim. They can go there own way.
