Living up to the hype

AFP, Beijing
State-of-the-art swimming technology doesn't come without its drawbacks and the humble, low-tech zipper had a dramatic influence on the Beijing Olympics on Monday.
Australian Jessicah Schipper, a medal contender in the women's 100m butterfly final, was distracted shortly before the race when her skin-tight Speedo LZR Racer suit broke.
"It was a bit of bad luck that I was getting my suit zipped up just before the race and the zip broke, so I had to do a quick change," she said.
"And the Racers aren't the easiest things to get into, so I was a bit stressed out from the nerves -
the adrenalin was pumping,” added Schipper, who went on to claim the bronze medal.
Schipper was helped into her new suit by teammate Libby Trickett, who went on to win the gold.
Their positions had been reversed before Sunday morning's semifinals, when it was Trickett who had a last-minute wardrobe malfunction.
"I had a similar problem before the semifinals and less did the same for me,” saidTYickett.
The revolutionary LZR Racer is a confidence builder in the water, but even for experienced wearers it can take some doing to get it right ondryland.
’The suits help us feel good in the water, and if you feel good in the water you can do special things,” said Australian Eamon Sullivan, who broke the men's 100m freestyle world record in a
LZR as the lead-off swimmer in the 4x100m freestyle relay final at the Games on Monday.
Sullivan, who has also lowered the 50m free world record three times this year, insisted that for all their high-tech wonder the suits themselves aren't responsible for a welter of world records that is continuing at the Water Cube in Beijing.
More than 40 world records had been set by swimmers wearing the LZR between its release in February and the start of the Beijing Games, prompting a rush for the costume by swimmers from all over the globe.
Kosuke Kitajima of Japan, whose swimmers were given dispensation to wear the LZR in Beijing despite contracts with domestic manufacturers, was converted in June when he shattered the 200m breaststroke world record when testing the suit at a meeting in Japan.
