Help me learn to love my snorkel

I bought a Finis snorkel a few years back but I just do not enjoy swimming with it. I find I hold my breath more per 25 than I do in an underwater or hypoxic 25. I haven't even tried doing a flip turn with it yet. Anyone else go through a similar adjustment phase when they started working with their snorkel? How did you get used to it?

  • Do you really think you are swimming well because you are using a kick board.??? I have heard all this kick stuff before from a few others. I don't use a kickboard because I do most of my kicking with the snorkel(which is what this thread is about),but re:kicking-every month in Swimming World they have an interview with a coach and every month they ask how important is kicking in their program.Every month the answer is very important.Some of these coaches are high volume,some are high intensity,but all are pro-kicking.
