Swimming Pics of the Week - August 4, 2011

With the talk of tech suits coming back up, I thought I'd post a pic and short video of what people still use their tech suits for.

These swimmers like to use the suits to get up to speed in season.  Not only that... I think they're having fun as well.

Rumors have it that FINA may be revisiting the tech suit issue in 2013, allowing men's suits to have the same coverage area as women's suits.  While no one can ultimately predict what's going to happen, or what it will mean for the sport... we do know that the sport will survive, which we've witnessed since the discontinuation of the suits.

Read a little more about the issue here.
