Delhi Trials herald Swimming's post bodysuit era

Australia's newest swimming sensation, 14-year-old Yolane Kukla from Queensland, produced the race of her life to claim the women's 50 metre butterfly title at the 2010 Telstra Australian Swimming Championships in Sydney last night.
The Championships, which serve as the trials for the Australia's team for the Delhi Commonwealth Games and Pan-Pacific Championships, are particularly significant as they mark the first major event since international swimming body FINA's decision to ban high-performance bodysuits.
The sport's reputation has damaged in recent years as high-performance bodysuits led to a plethora of world records.
Explaining the new environment, newly appointed Swimming Australia Head Coach Leigh Nugent stated, "it used to be a great meet before the supersuits came in when you got half a dozen world records at an Olympics or a world championships ... but then when we got overdosed on them they lost their value."
The new post high-performance bodysuits may well see no records broken but as triple Olympic medallist Jess Schipper adds "if someone breaks a world record it is going to be fantastic."
