New blocks installed for the Worlds.
I've read that the use of the new blocks was postponed due at lack of availability. A change of mind of FINA ?
You can see it on the official website.
look at this image.
As Galen will soon point out, this is just the first of a planned series of innovations leading to a spring-loaded launcher built into the platform. The only problem FINA has at the moment with this concept is that the platform launches the swimmer past the 15 meter point. They are pondering how to solve this problem....
The only problem with the 15 M rule is you couldn't go underwater after 15 M.Fortunately the cannon can be set so that you skip over the water and so stay legal(we have to follow some rules after all.)
