Dear USMS swimmers,
I play waterpolo now for a certain amount of time. This go's very well; i know how to swim freestyle and how to breath. Also the sprinting is something i can handle. But when it comes to swim on technique, for example when i need to swim 2 km's, i just break down. I think this is probably because i have a lot of drag, by having the wrong kick method.
When i swim with a board to practise my flutter, i don't go forward at all. At the moment i started with waterpolo, i used to swim freestyle with breaststroke kick. Maybe there's just something wrong with getting the good kicking feeling.
Does anyone know how i can train this?
Thanks in advantage!

This observation tells me that you are most likely kicking with your ankles flexed, so that your feet and shins form an "L."
Fins may help you develop the proper feeling, and also help to make your ankles more flexible.
