22 May FINA update

Hi All,

Quick update for everyone who may be watching this. Overnight (EU Friday) we were able to meet with both FINA and  the EPFL.

I can't divulge exactly the contents of both those conversations, yet, but I can say that we are extremely optimistic that we will be able to get a correct and just decision regarding the current status of blueseventy's suits, and that it is possible this will be in the short term future.

I hope everyone is able to enjoy their weekends, good luck to everyone at meets especially JEI, and we'll have more info early next week, when we hope to have a time at which the FINA bureau will be able to review the decision made by the commision.


Thanks
Steve

My daughter has a blueseventy and I have also purchased another suit (not speedo) which is not on the approved list. I have just paid for this suit, not arrieved yet. I am absolutely disgusted with FINA and our governing body, no consideration for the swimmers. No funding, and paying money for suits which have been banned. I would realy like to take proceeding aginst these bodies to claim for loss of money.
