I was watching the barcelona swim meet,
esp the backstroke event when I saw
the competitors dolfin kick underwater
facing up. I didn't see them blow out
the water until right before they surfaced.
I'm wondering if they are just used the
water going in the nose. I know that
some of them wear nose clips but to be
able to dolfin kick that far & long underwater,
surely water must go in the nose... Can the
sinous ever get used that?

Many of these swimmers have developed a technique where they use their upper lip to block their nose. (true!)
