Improving Dolphin Kick

I was reading Ande's tips for faster swimming and noticed the one about practicing the dolphin kick. My butterfly has always been pretty bad and a function of this is my timing between the kick and the stroke. However, my dolphin kick alone is very weak. Anyone have any tips for improving my kick?

  • Aconcagua?! I'm afraid I'll never get there, being able to count the likely years remaining and what I am likely to do with them. Small bits of timing, well sub-second, can make a huge difference. This is a very worthy question, and if Ande doesn't get to it here, perhaps he will if you post a query on the SDK thread or "Ask Ande," or "What do you need to do to improve?" I'd be interested, as I just did my first 100 fly (Ok, I died), and would like to know more about timing, finessing the kick, and keeping on going.
