Where my chin rubs my shoulder during freestyle I have a huge abrasion. I keep very clean shaven and I've tried Glide, any other suggestions?
Thanks

My chin never rubs my shoulder. Does it mean I'm not swimming correctly?:rolleyes:
Absolutely not. A few have told me to correct my stroke to fix this problem but I probably wont significantly change my stroke just so my shoulder doesn't get an abrasion. I was a swim coach for 5 years plus and saw lots of variations on swim strokes that all work. We all have different body types, slightly different shoulder designs etc. so that explains small acceptable differences in swim stroke.
