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.

This is the worst rule change ever. Jeff I think many are going to rejoice over the new fina ruling. I was dq'd in breaststroke twice, once for jumping off the bottom, once in a 200 sc im for only swimming one breaststroke instead of two.
