I am ambivalent about the"new" blocks.They are clearly in violation of current rules,but they can just change the rules.The current technical suits are either placebos or in violation of the rules,but there is money to be made so the rules get overlooked.I think,practically,the flip turn on backstroke makes sense,but it really was unfair to the prior record holders and really isn't backstroke.Don't even get me started on the dolphin kick in breaststroke or you'll get a VERY long rant.:mad::mad:
