Top swimming officials are to hold talks with manufacturers next month, after a cascade¹ of world records were set using a new type of bodysuit. From the United States to Australia via Eindhoven, 12 out of 13 world records have been set since February 16 in Speedo's LZR Racer bodysuit.

Top swimming officials are to hold talks with manufacturers next month,
after a cascade of world records were set using a new type of bodysuit.

Frenchman Alain Bernard demolished² the old sprint³ freestyle order in Eindhoven, breaking three world records in the space of three days in the suit. With the Beijing Olympics coming in August, coaches and officials are worried the swimming world could be split into those who have access to the 550 US dollar suit and those who do not. Swimming's world governing body FINA will meet with manufacturers during next month's world short-course championships.
