      Compared to the heavy woolen suits that covered much more of the person's body and had been worn up to the 1920's, these were a vast improvement. Yes by our standards they are heavy and cumbersome but back then they were positively indecent that woman's libs were on display. Shocking!

      I agree! So glad that uniforms have been allowed to evolve!!!! Way better in both looks and freedom for movement today! Newer designs I think will bring a broader attention to more sports. The Olympics help bring the world together, so the more range or interest the better.

    Chlorine breaks apart or dissolves cotton fibers which clog filter systems in pools. That’s why we weren’t allowed to wear clothes containing the material or fabric during Physical Education or P.E. when I was in high school. May or may not be the same reason why synchronized swimmers no longer, or uncommonly, use it.

      Roberto Reyes Nah, they keep on mentioning how heavy the suit is so why wouldn't it be because of that reason?

    • @madisonmercier2559
      @madisonmercier2559 6 лет назад +5

      Definitely not, in sychro any weight at all slows you down and makes doing every thing more difficult (thats why many of them wear weights in the water and when they take them off the task become easier) the reason they probably dont wear cotton any more is most likely that its very hard to move in it. You may not see it but some of those simple moves she was doing she woukd have been able to do 1000 time better with out that suit on.

    Nice idea however the swim suit is not that accurate - it has far less 'bottom' to it than a swimsuit from the 1940s (Esther Williams period), which gives Ona more movement than Ms Williams would have had.

    I grew up a dancer and was just wondering why they point their toes/feet like that as opposed to a dancer doing a "move". they scrunch their toes, where is a dancer uses her whole foot to point. just curious:)

    • @DominikaHare
      @DominikaHare 2 года назад +1

      Well, it’s not really a point. I think my teachers called it a comb. Since there is no floor in sincro, you don’t really need your feet to get support, when I fold it like that the whole leg tenses and it gives very precise control, since it kinda makes the foot “mix” with the leg, eliminating a joint tomhave to control. My teachers did say I had a very pretty comb, but they never really explained why it needs to be pushed that much.
