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.
Don't get to excited, just because FINA adopts it doens't mean its coming to masters anytime soon! There we're a couple of other changes they made ahile back as well, one was related to this (which i guess now is defunct) the other had two do with the transition from back to front into the backstroke turn.
