Does anyone else here NOT kick when they swim freestyle?
When I was 19, a coach told me that a lot of "real" freestylers don't kick, which was a surprise to me because every other coach I'd had would yell at me to kick during my events. I grew up thinking I was the odd one out, but maybe someone on here knows what I'm talking about...

What are the benefits of kicking with a board? I was watching a friend who is a marathon runner turned triathlete doing repeats of kicking with the board. He was actually lying on the board. His body position was so not applicable to a freestyle stroke.
