Breaststrokers ---- make sure you understand the LATEST ruling on the pull-fly kick- br kick rule that has just been restated.
It says that you may use the fly kick AFTER the hands move apart & before the BR kick, on starts & turns, is the way I understand it.
Deleted my response because I see that this is a FINA interpretation. This will be interesting. Most elites appear to do the dolphin kick first and without any discernible hand separation (at least as far as I can tell from the underwater cameras). I will be shocked if they really DQ people for this at the Olympics but if they don't, I will continue to be frustrated that the elites can get away with this while I can't!
