I can't do an effective dolpin kick off of my turns. I usually do freestyle kick off my freestyle and back turns. But for 50 fly its crutial. I only do 2 or 3 kicks so that I dont slow myself down. Thats only about 5 meters. I always get beat on the turns because I am a bad under water swimmer. do you have any tips on dolphin kicking?
Dolphins were built for swimming!?!? It’s a good thing, since they usually are terrible at the bike and run in triathlons.
Also dolphins aren’t very good at front quadrant pulling and they frequently break the 15 Meter rule.
On the other hand, I admit, I can watch the dolphins, whales and fish for hours admiring there grace, flowing rhythm and power in the water. They seem so at home swimming…
And while watching dolphins can provide beautiful mental imagery, I think Jeff was spot on when he said “With the help of a good fly coach…”
