With the apparent ban of the full body suit about to be implemented next year, it poses some interesting questions. Those records held and broken by athletes wearing the suits, are they to be set apart or stand alongside the unsuited swimmers? The athletes were fully sanctioned at the time so they cannot be blamed. There is also a lot of uncertainty still surrounding the "new' types of materials. It seems that there is somewhat of a power struggle between the swimming world body and not wishing to upset big sponsors such as Speedo or Arena.
If the suits improved performance and were available to all swimmers, why ban them?
The manufacturers of golf equipment spend millions every year researching and developing, new club shafts, heads, faces, grips, golf balls etc, in order that top golfers and of course every other golfer, will use or purchase their product. Should they now be banned in favour of a one size fits all mentality?
