The new issue of the ASCA magazine demonstrates a start like the grab start except you grab the block on the side about even with your ankles and lean forward as far as you can.The article says it is about .3 sec faster.I haven't tried it yet,have any of you?

An excellant level of trash talking! My best buddy through high school and I competed day and night in everything from swimming, surfing, chinups, parcheesi --- didn't matter what it was, it was a blood sport. Unwritten rules of trash talking were to lay off the other guys family, and . . . . hmmmm . . ummmhhhh??? .... guess that was about the only limit. The only time we'd let up is when we were on a relay together, then all derogatory statements shifted to our soon to be humbled opponents.:applaud:
