Kicking is essential to swimming.
If you want to swim fast, you need to kick fast.
With a board, without a board,
With fins, without fins.
While swimming or just kicking.
Consider improving your kick.
We need speed.

I have a training snorkel on its way to me now....anyone know of some good kick/snorkel drills? Or other kick drills not involving a streamline?
I've been doing a lot of kicking with my arms at my side working all strokes with and without fins. It really helps with body position IMHO. I've also done a lot of kicking on my sides (not with a snorkel) and working on hip rotation. You can make any set into a kick set.
