A serious question (I know, how unlikely is that?): I've been on the shelf most of the year since Nov., and I'm really curious as to how the new allowance of the single dolphin kick is being called. Not the official interpretation, but the actual experience of fellow breastrokers in meets, whether Open or Masters, local, zone or nats. At the time we originally discussed the new rule, there was the sentiment that some would push the envelope towards the second half-kick- is this happening, or are some calling it super-tight to avoid that?
"there is now a requirement for all movements of the legs to be “in the same horizontal plane and without alternating movement”"
So back to the definition for those who want to be legal and utilize this legal kick.
Does the above quote interpret that you cannot change forward depth direction during the butterfly kick. ie go from a straight line underwater to an angle towards the surface during the kick?
