What would you consider as the most important reason to include kicking in your workouts?
Also, what do you see as the main difference and purpose between the exercises kicking with a board and kicking without a board?

I left out the most important thing I learned about kicking this year.
Kick while you are swimming. If you two beat kick during most of practice, 4 beat kick. If you four beat kick most of practice, six beat kick. It will do wonders for your kick endurance and it is really important that you kick works with your stroke.
Open water kicking info stolen from Karlyn Pipes-Neilsen's brain: You have to kick for balance without a wetsuit. With a wetsuit, you can get away without kicking, UNTIL THE END. Towards the end, if you have not been kicking, turn it up, so your legs are pumped full of blood and ready to go up the ramp.
I don't know **** about most things, but I am an excellent and discerning parrot.
