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). YouTube- Kickin without board.MTS Any thoughts on my kick will be greatly appreciated. Please let me know if i am doing anything wrong. THANKSSSS

  • Gary Hall was probably close to 10.0 for 25 yards I've been 10.9 for 25 yards, so 25 meters is probably a bit over 12 Gary is one of the fastest flutter kickers who ever went to UT Gary could flutter kick 100 yards in around 55 Shaun Jordan kicked 50 yards with a board from a dive wearing a brief in the late 80's early 90's in 23.3. Ian Crocker was an excellent flutter kicker, he kicked a 50 from a push with a board in around 24.6 and a 100 in 53 or 54 though his SDK was much faster, in his prime I bet he could easily SDK a 100 yards with one stroke into each flip turn under 43 or 44 seconds he could probably SDK 25 yards in 9.2 or 3 People are much faster without boards. Boards have much more drag, you make 2 fists at the end of the board to hold it try SDKing with 2 fists fast for time instead of flat streamlined hands your kicking speed comes from a combination of your: + kicking technique, (some swimmers have better feel for the water with their feet) + jumping ability, + your streamline, + body position, + strength, + kicking conditioning, + body proportions, (head, torso ... ) + foot size & flexibility, + knee hyperextension + expectations & + ability to get & stay psyched. you can inprove all this with proper training Ande Guys, BTW I have gotta couple of questions. Why is kicking without board faster than with board or is it just me? my best time with a board in 25 meters is 15.9 seconds which is slower than my without board kicking. Is it because of the different body positions or is it just that kicking fast with a board requires more power of the legs ??? I have heard that some of the elite swimmers can kick 50 meters on a board in less than 30 seconds, if that is true then howcome they do it?????? I want to know a few more things. Does anybody know what are the fastest times for 25 meters freestyle from the block (without the SUITS). I have read in the race club forum that once gary hall jr did a 10 flat off the blocks in training. Can anybody really go under 10 seconds without the suit????? Sorry if i had bore you. But plz let me know..........................................................................
