Suits of the Future?

There has been a lot of controversy over the new competition swim suits. As a competitive elite swimmer, I feel that the new fast suits come with the new technology. These suits are designed to make people swim faster then they have ever swam before. So what is the big deal? Haven't all swim suits prior been named "the fastest suit to date." Yes, they have, and this is why all of the hype and contemplation over these new suits has gone too far. Yes, they do help with buoyancy and they do help keep swimmers stable in the water, however, they do not have motors on them that would propel one forward. It is all up to the swimmer as to if and when they will swim fast. The ones whom work harder and believe they will swim fast with the fastest suit in the world will be the ones who will swim fast and drop time. However, the ones who simply depend on the suits to make them fast, will be sadly disappointed. Swimming fast comes from hard work and dedication. Those who are at the top of the sport know and understand that wearing a certain suit will only get you so far.
