I like to incorporate a pull set a couple times a week and I use the TYP Catalyst paddles regularly for freestyle pull. Unfortunately, I don't find them very practical for doing backstroke work. I find that them a little clunky in the water they slow my cadence rather significantly. Might someone recommend a paddle that might be built to better mimic a Backstroke pull? Thanks!
We tested paddles last year in the May-June issue of SWIMMER, with a companion video released on our YouTube site. A lot of our testers who are backstrokers preferred the curved paddles for backstroke (most testers did not like them for anything else, though).
Back issues are available if you would like to see the entire review.
