Fina Rules

I just got my new Swimming World and it said that FINA was looking at allowing a dolphin kick in the breaststroke pullout. Does anyone know the status of this?

    Wayne!You are exaggerating a bit!Yes, Kitajima did one dolphin off the start on the 100m *** and I agree it was cheating, but off every wall?---absolutely not!I have the entire video of the 200m. *** in Athens and Kitajima swam it perfectly clear of any dolphin kicks and still won!And just because he is smaller does not mean he is not as strong...Besides, isn't it all about technique?Especially in breaststroke?Wouldn't you be the first one to say that, Wayne?He kicked everyone's ass because he was better, that is as simple as that...
