Swimming Question of the Week - July 29, 2009
Would Biedermann have won if Michael had been wearing a Jaked suit?
Would Biedermann have won if Michael had been wearing a Jaked suit?

I think so, Biedermann has been on fire. He broke European records in the German trials in a textile suit, so its not just the suit. Biedermann looks like the real deal and its very good for German swimming, considering where they are now. Besides, the Jaked suit might not have made a difference to Phelps. These suits have different effects on different people depending on body type and size. For some swimmers it even hinders them. I think its just a case of one swimmer really going for it. |

|
yeah same here |
|
|
thats what i thought. i wonder if phelps and beidermann will ever do a rematch in the 200 free. i bet cavic would win 100 fly though. |
|
|
Beidermann and Phelps will race again but it will be interesting to see how Phelps responds. All the pressure is on him now. Also, don't forget that Phelps missed three monthes of training as well. I think Phelps will reclaim the crown before the Olympics. |
|
|
he missed 6 months actually he actually planned 3 months but got suspended for drugs so went even more without training |
|
|
Definitely maybe :) . Biederman is a very good swimmer and Phelps is just a human after all. |
|
|
maybe, phelp's human tests are coming in at the next olympic.lol. |
|
|
Sprinter, is your picture doing a fly or breast breakout? |
|
|
fly :) |
|
|
okay thats what i thought but it still does look a little like breast. is that you, or is it a picture off the net? |
|
|
this is me :)
|
|
|
yeah i know thats what i thought |
|
|
German look so powerful on 400m and 200m - he said that he knew Phelps' main weapon is powerful dolphin kicking during underwater after flip turn and kicking so he copying him and trains hards -finally its working for him |
|
|
yes i agree with you james stuart Paul Bidermann was more explosiv from the beginning to the end , the swimsuit biderman was wearin i think it was Arena X-Glide and Phelps's Speedo LZR Racer. So i think phelps was beaten by a men not by a suit :) |
|
|
Who would have won if both swimmers had been wearing old school jammers or briefs? And, how much time would Biederman have dropped since Beijing if he had been wearing an old school suit in each effort? |
|
|
well, in beijing, beidermann got 5th in the 200 free wearing leg suits. and he got 1:46.00, so, i think phelps would win. |
|
|
In every competition there is a winner and a loser. Anyone can win any race. Even longshots win sometimes. Will be interesting to watch. |
|
|
yeah |
|
|
Suits are just too much ado |
|
|
no. plain and simple. |
|
|
I'm going to have to say yes. He had another gear he hadn't used yet. That guy is for REAL. |
