In Response To: Re: IPF legal depth detection (Mark Yates)

Mark, I am pretty sure that you are getting the point that those in the USAPL squat well below parallel seem to like it that way, although I am not sure why. Over time, the interpretation of the rule has become extreme so unless the device could be calibrated to show the convincing depth that these folks are used to it probably won't do them any good.
To all of you that are arguing with Mark as to your idea of depth and him firing back with the machine doesn't lie; might it be time to re-evaluate your thoughts on depth?
