I have been trying to incorporate the butterfly kick off the start and turns with my backstroke. I get 2 -4 kicks in before I come to the surface. My question is: how much faster is the butterfly kick than the flutter kick? Or do you have to have a strong fly kick to gain any benefit? ** years ago we were very content with a quick flutter to the surface (and I'm not anywhere near as fast now!)

I understand what you are saying. After the 1972 olympics, grab starts came about because Mark Spitz's use them. I wasn't that adapt at it and was one of the few that still used the older start which is a behid wind up start.
