Does anyone know the rule on underwater dolphin during the freestyle starts and turns? The 15m rule doesn't apply, does it? Freestyle is freestlye, most people don't go that far because it is slower, except Phelps/Leveaux. Just wondering though, if I went 40 meters on the first 50 of a 400 free LCM, that would be allowed, right? Is there documentation to verify this, in case of dispute?
