I have quite a few...bear with me, I'm new and oh so cute!
1. I have a major issue with my goggles. I'm on my 3rd pair this semester, and they fit the best of all I've tried, but I have a real issue getting proper suction over both eyes. Do I have an odd shaped face or something? What can I do to fix this?
2. I recently learned how to do a flip turn, and I do blow out my nose when I do this, but I still get water up there. Tips on fixing this?
3. Fins and hand paddles. What's the deal? When are they worth an investment?
4. Come on...tell me...does the Butterfly EVER get any easier? I got the kick down pat, I can do the stroke, but god help me should I put them together...

And butterfly… Hey, if you have the kick down pat, then you a light years ahead of most swimmers. The kick is a huge part of butterfly. Once you get the timing of the arms down, you’ll be doing an effortless fly, like Ian Crocker, in no time.
Please! Enlighten us with the timing!! I have the same issues. I think I'm starting to get it, but it's not getting any easier!! If you could break it down piece by piece (like head in relation to rest of body i.e. your head should be down when your arms are in front and your butt is up. )that would be fabulous!!
