In the strokes that require that you surface within 15m of the start, does the head itself have to break the surface by the 15m mark or does the head have to surface before the feet reach the 15m mark? I had thought it was the former but just read that it was the latter and am not sure if I should believe it or not. For many swimmers there's an almost 2m difference.
Thanks in advance!
I believe it says the swimmer must surface before reaching the 15m mark. Well if the swimmers feet surface at 15m, I would DQ that swimmer because thier head went beyond the 15m mark while submerged.
