Aren't the suits tested for compliance on the athlete?

I honestly don't see this.
I've looked at quite a few videos now, comparing the techniques between other jumpers and their medal winning jump.
It looks close enough to me and, honestly, plenty of experts, too, otherwise they would have pointed to the difference in techniques enabled by the altered suits, rather than only having to rely on finding alterations after taking the suit apart.
- wafflemaker 2y ago>Aren't the suits tested for compliance on the athlete? That's half of the drama: suits have RFID chips identifying them. After the suits have been tested (as this sort of shenanigans is pretty common in this sport), they resew the chips from verified suits onto the tricksuits. This was caught on the video.
- metalman 2y agoha! so there is a whole other problem with, fake chips, and other fake stuff, and one of the ways to make a tamper proof, impossible to fake security tag, is to paint it with a "special" paint, full of spakles and micro blobs, resulting in a perfectly random one of a kind spray on label that is impossible to remove, can be done at any scale,and that is scanned, and given a serial #. so do the chip, do the suit, shoes, whatever needs to be secured, and released.Any company complisit in assisting cheating, would be given a permanent ban, along with all principals and those directly involved. And since people are going to jail, for cheating in video games, then perhaps life sentences are apropriate as well.
