After kicking off the wall during a tumble turn, or after a start for that matter, do dolphin kicks give you a better boost than flutter kicks? Almost all competition swimmers seem to dolphin kick. Do dolphin kicks give you a stronger boost off the wall than flutter kicks?

  • I am glad to see suggestions of working on both SDK and flutter. I agree that is important for you to work on both. Possibly have someone videotape you for you to see what you look like. Get into a 15 yard pool (diving well) and get timed doing both flutter and SDK (several times each) w/ your breakout.
