50' is too far. "Letting them do whatever they want" is not unique, its most "nonchampionship" men's FP and its ugly. Hows a nice step then crowhop (Ie double crowhop) sound?. The problem with changing pitching mechanics is we need similar rules as NCAA so these girls are not disadvantaged by playing ASA. But if the NCAA and ASA got on board with requiring the toe to stay down but allow separation (essentially get rid of leap) and allowing the nonpivot foot to be off the rubber, I would be very pleased.
