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...

    This is my problem too. The only solution is to practice your kick. I am still working on mine. I am my team's weakest kicker, and strongest puller. This is an interesting comment. Made me think that there are Kickers Pullers Swimmers I've found that often, masters swimmers are often great pullers and weak on kick/ swim. However, with USS, I've seen great kickers/ swimmers; super pullers/ swimmers. The fabulous people are all 3. I HAVE seen terrible kickers who are great swimmers (they kick well when swimming)/ pullers. Strange. . .
