Really silly inquiry regarding the barrier in a 50m pool.
Former Member
Please forgive me for this, but my OCD brain needs to know:
When they put that barrier in the 50m pool to make 2x25m pools, how can you be left with 25m if the barrier is at least 1m wide?
(This matters to me, sorry.) :)
Still supposed to measure the pool every time bulkhead is moved. Just to be sure.
Yeah, I thought that was the rule for USA-S. Only has to be measured once when bulkhead moves. Funny that USMS is more stringent on that but I guess they are trying to hold to FINA standards because a national or world record could be set almost anywhere - heck, we had some guys at our LMSC champs break all the 75-79 national records a couple weeks back.
BTW, good meet this weekend Calvin, I wanted to comment on your blog but something must be weird with my phone and blog comments.
