I was watching the barcelona swim meet,
esp the backstroke event when I saw
the competitors dolfin kick underwater
facing up. I didn't see them blow out
the water until right before they surfaced.
I'm wondering if they are just used the
water going in the nose. I know that
some of them wear nose clips but to be
able to dolfin kick that far & long underwater,
surely water must go in the nose... Can the
sinous ever get used that?

I've tried the lip thing and can't seem to get it. I try to blow out just enough that it keeps the water out but not so much I run out of air. Easy the first 25 and not so easy on the last 25.
I've never raced with a plug but have considered it. I like breathing through my nose while swimming and that's what has stopped me from trying it.
