The dolphin kick will be allowed in breaststroke races soon. This will make Japan happy, as will it make a certain university in California vindicated that all of its breaststrokers have been doing that kick for at least 15 years.

Personally, I don't want to do it. But of course I'll have to if I want to win against those who have total freedom to do it.
This is the worst rule change ever.

Originally, the dolphin kick was allowed inthe *** stroke. In a way we are only going back to the origin of the stroke. Does anyone know when the two were distinguished from one another? I think it was inthe late 50s. I know that it is mentioned in Swimmign Fastest.
