CLOSING CEREMONY

Did anyone see what a nice wave with his hips he had in is race. No wonder to me that he became a world champion with a technique as nice as this and such a good and steady rythm.
Not to be negative here, but I think many people would be amazed if they saw the HUGE dolphin kick he (and many others) took off the start. I know the rules are changing, but it just amazes me that the judges still won't step out and make a call to DQ what is clearly illegal. Once the kick is made legal, what will be the next "technique" people will employ to bend the rules?
Again I am not trying to be overly negative, amazing result from a 35 year old and he is not the only one who kicked that way, I just feel there should be more accountability from judges so we don't have another fiasco like last summer.
If you notice all the rule changes in back and breaststroke that have happened over the past years are being done to eliminate "judgment" calls. It might seem logical to have two sets of world records, I can't imagine how fast a Rick Carey or Steve Lundquist could have been with the current rules.
