Relief? I actually was expecting you to outraged by the proposed changes. I just think that FINA played it safe and almost sided with the swim suit makers.
I am relieved because the my suit and yours are gold.
Speedo may be in trouble and so could the TYR Tracer Rise if the combination of materials create buoyancy
Hi Tony.

OOOps, I posted the press release before I knew it was at your site. I would have linked to you if I knew you had it up first.
No worries.
Interesting times in the pool for sure.
