Fina approves new generation Speedo LZR suits
16/10/2009
Swimwear brand Speedo has announced that its new generation of performance swimwear inspired by the Speedo LZR Racer suit has been approved by the world governing body of the sport, FINA.
The Speedo range is fully compliant with the new FINA rules that come into effect from January 2010, restricting manufacturers in the design of suits and in the materials they use to make them. The change in the rules has come about following controversy surrounding a number of suits in use among elite swimmers during 2009.
The Speedo LZR Racer Elite suit, Speedo LZR Racer Pro suit and Speedo LZR Racer Comp suit will be phased-in to the market from November 2009, January 2010 and mid-2010.
Speedo says the new suits represent “the most comprehensive and technically advanced” range of performance swimwear to date and caters for every level of competitive swimming.
