@staytunednbc: Replying to @Alex Find out why Speedo’s NASA-designed #LZR Racer full-body swimsuits were banned from the Olympics and what swimmers are wearing now. @Maya Eaglin
Why were they banned though? I mean if everyone was wearing the suit, the no one had an unfair advantage, no?

“To keep things fair they banned the hi tech suits” AFTER a bunch of people had already won in them. That’s not at all fair.

Instead of banning them, they should've made that the new standard just like technology changes the times apparel should update with the times

What no one mentions is that he would’ve won all of those medals anyway without the suit because he was dominating at the time

i love how people in the comments haven't considered ethics before, very interesting to consider when sports are changing too much and for the worse

Commented this when it came up 3 years ago in Tokyo. These suits were insane. You could place a 5 pound weight on top and they would float. It changed swimming from being about technique to being

I was wondering why the men don’t wear full body any more. The shorts just don’t seem like enough

Do after Phelps had already won all his gold medals wearing this unfair suit, they decided to ban it?

Make these suits their own category! Technical innovation in sport should be recognized at the Olympics in some way. 🥰
