Guys i have greatly improved my kick. Before I could kick 25 meters without board on 17.1-18.2 seconds. Now after empshasising my legs both in and out of water i timed myself for a 25 meters kick without board and i was amazed at the result. I went 14.21 without board. My swimming times have also improved greatly. So here is a kickin video of mine. It was done in a water polo pool (33 meters/22 meters).

Any thoughts on my kick will be greatly appreciated. Please let me know if i am doing anything wrong. THANKSSSS

Thanks man. So anybody else interested to help me?????????????? Well, you're already under 15sec on 25m flutter kick. I don't think you need any help.
The kicking mechanics shown on your clip is near perfection. I say near but honestly, I can't find any flaws to it. Body position is great, very streamlined.
And like you discovered, these old cliches about the need to keep the kicking in the water (as opposed to taping over the surface) are totally wrong.
If I had one little tiny advise: Now that you master the flutter kick very well, you should introduce a SDK portion to those sprints and see what impact it has on time. You may get even faster with let's say 5 or 6 SDK prior starting the flutter kicking action, who knows!
