Hi all
We're about to use Omega blocks for the first time at our short course nationals in the UK. I don't currently use a track start but it would seem like I'd be looking a gift horse in the mouth not to use them..
However, I won't have the chance to practice in advance (apart from warm up).
Any tips?

Can anyone with access to these blocks measure the distance between the front edge of the block and the leading edge of the back foot ramp at position 4 and 5? Even better if you could just give me the range of motion of the adjustable part. Like "at full forward position the distance from front edge of block to ramp is 12" and at full back its 16" etc.
I am making a ratchetstrap/clamp on ramp so I can practice these blocks at home before nationals and get the feel even though i have a normal block here but I will need to know how far back to set it so I can duplicate the conditions available.
