No more latex swim caps?

Has anyone seen this?

Yes it’s terrible. This is just the first step. Next up is a ban on CO2 cartridges due to pressure from enviromental groups on reducing green house gas emmissions at events. I hope you all still have your frame pumps.

Nice spoof.

Wow,

I am right now contacting my lawyer.

I am going to sue the race directors of all races I participated in and who certainly were aware of the dangers of latex products.

No wonder my swim splits sucked… allergic shock!

It’s caused quite a stir over at Trinewbies -

Maybe a sense of humor also can be trained.

Well I know for a fact they’ve run out of caps at IMAZ, they’re making all first timers use condoms(XXL) instead.

and after that they will ban all triathlon events from being held on april fool’s day :slight_smile:

I’ve got plenty of XXXL if they run low.

But if they use SILICONE swim caps, will that not cause some health issues. I mean silicone breast implants were problematic, weren’t they? My God, you wear the swim cap on your head! Seems like trading one health “issue” for another.

Silicone caps?

And I thought I looked like a boob in laytex.

Those guys bit pretty hard.
