Re: timing of re-contact

I think the generally accepted interpretation of the rules for hurdling would tell you to release the ball while still in the air, and make sure it hits the ground before you re-contact it. The only possible point of dispute with that might be the rule about remaining in contact with the ball while crossing the finish line gives you no points, so you might have to release it before you cross the line...
