when ever we are doing pull sets my lane mates put me up front because when it comes to pulling (bouy and paddles) i'm the fastest... right after that set and we have to do regular swimming i go to the back of the line because i'm the slowest... what gives folks... how can i be so fast in one thing and so slow doing the other... BTW the same happens with kicking with fins... Kranky...

  • I suspect you're like me: * I'm a weak kicker * The pull buoy raises my legs a bit and makes me more streamlined. I can pull faster than I can swim and I never use paddles, just a pull buoy. If you use paddles and suffer from the same kicking maladies I do I suspect your pull/swim difference is even greater. Skip
