Bill,
When I was starting to do the kick, the beginning is the most natural and efficient place to put it.
I find it the exact opposite. I treat the new pull out rule as a continuous motion starting with my hands and ending with my feet. I actually love this rule just because it makes my pullouts soooo much stronger now. I can easily reach the middle of the pool (25m) before I start my 2nd pull to bring me to the surface.
This rule would have saved me many DQs in the course of my age-group swimming career. Including one by my OWN FATHER in Divisionals and one in All-Stars. Then again, you;re not a swim parent until you have DQed your own child. I got mine out of the way Summer of 2006 :thhbbb:
