I am completely horrible at dolphin kicking and wanted to know what others thought about changing my kick to flutter off walls and starts. Is it possible to be just as fast using the flutter kick (especially on backstroke turns) and does anyone here do it this way?
It all depends on the individual. If you have honestly tried both, and flutter is faster for you, then by all means, use the flutter kick.
Make sure you have trained both ways, however, as you may find that with proper training, the streamlined dolphin comes through for you.
