How important is the second kick? I'd like to hear what others think, but unfortunately, "second" is not an allowable search term on the forums ("too common").
Personally, I am starting to think that it is very important.

I think some very smooth butterfliers can make that second kick look so smoothe that it SEEMS they're not kicking a second time, but they are. Whatever you do, like the others say, you have to do SOMETHING of a second kick within the rhythm of the stroke to get your upper body up and over successfully.
