Does anyone remember:
When were flip turns in free style invented/introduced in competitive swimming?
When did goggles become 'standard equipment' for swimmers?
Thanks!
THANK YOU ALL for great answers - including bonus info on the odd yard events and breastroke in IM :applaud:
I'm researching for a novel, I'm writing, so if any of you have some good swim stories from the late sixties in the US you would like to share ... I'm all ears
And ... Why, oh WHY wasn't I born before 2nd world war ... the IM without breaststroke would have been the perfect event for me :D
