My 6 yr old son has been joining the swim team for about 8 months now. He is doing well and enjoys the swimming. However I notice that he always take at least one second after gun (or go) then dive to the water. The coach has been telling him many times and he is still doing that. Is there any drill I can help him to correct this? When he is doing back stroke he does not has this problem.
He is now still doing both hands out diving instead of holding the block diving. I guess this will take time for him to learn this.
I am new to this board and welcome any suggestion.
Thanks

Maybe it is a strategy. Michael Phelps could do it and really mess with heads.
His name isn't Rob, is it?
