Hi there, first time posting, just found out about this wonderful forum. I learned about French girl Laure Manaudou using a 2 beat kick to swim 400m. But the clip on youtube is too fast i couldn't figurt out which leg kicks goes with which stroking arm. Does anybody know? Is it the opposite leg kick with the stroking arm? Or is it the same side? Thanks.
Just wanted to add that at the end of the clip it demonstrates 6, 4 and 2 beat kicks.Looking at want they call a 4-beat kick, it appears to be a 6-beat kick with a weak 3rd and 5th beat. It appears that her left hand enters as the right foot starts its downbeat and the right hand enters when the left foot starts its down beat. The only way to do this is with a 2 or 6 beat kick or by not kicking left-right-left-right…
