Hi, Where events use a pool rather than open water, obviously you have to turn... and more than once... I was watching a youtube technique video and they seemed to kick off the end wall with every turn, which is obviously great for speed but also something I thought could get you disqualified in pure swimming events. Is it allowable in triathlon rules? Thanks, G

Tumble turns are not allowed in triathlon swims, you may push off (kick off) though as much as you want

Cool! That'll be a bit easier to get my head around for the first one.
