I'm been working on it again. The rules state that you can do a single pull or double pull in order to execute the turn. When you have went from being on your back or side to front is one front crawl pull use to be able to execute the turn. Sometimes, I don't get close enough to the wall and head up with two which is illegal. Also, from back to ***, when you touch with one hand at the wall after that you can pull underwater and come up breaststroke. I almost was unable to breath after that moved in a 200 Im in practice. One asking these questions because I thinking maybe I might do a 200 IM in a meet and don't want to be DQ because of illegal turns on the backstroke or back to ***.
Has there been a recent rule change? As far as I know, the backstroke turn, as the rules currently dictate, has been in place since approx. the late '80s. I could be wrong...
I find that a spin turn from back to *** works pretty well, but does require pretty good breath holding ability!
