So do the judges remember you if you are critical of their performance?

    From where the official is standing I imagine it would be very hard to see his hands as they finished through the final pull with a faint sculling motion. His arms and hands at that point were under his body, and the only motion that was evident from a poolside view was the foot fluttering. Even though there was a little hang time before he flipped, the video clearly shows that there was a slight hand jive left in the continuous turning motion. But then again, "judge not, lest ye be judged" might be Aaron's lesson.:)
