[quote=Anonymous]I grew up doing summer swim in an area with some very quirky, grand dame kinds of pools from the 20s and 30s. Some of them were fancy country clubs and others were former resorts absorbed by the suburbs. We had distances from 22-40 yards and some pools had 1920s decks and gutters with the gutters 18” below the deck. Blocks were literally wood blocks like the ones at CrossFit and they hooked over the lip of the deck. You’d have a friend hold the back down for you. Anyway, we always checked our backstroke flag stroke counts because they changed at every meet and we had to do legal turns. And we did that even through club and HS at standard pools. Do kids not do that during warmups anymore?[/quote]
