It isn't a new rule, it is just a "reinterpretation" of an existing rule! Got it.
(They just keep trying to make breaststroke faster...shades of Pinocchio, maybe it will be a real stroke someday...)
IF they call it this way consistently it may be OK.My worry is that people will do the early kick and then add the second during the pull and argue that it wasn't really a kick,just natural undulation-exactly the problem the 2005 rule was trying to solve.Instead of going down this slippery slope I'd rather they eliminated the pullout entirely and said we could swim regular BR underwater for 15M.
