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!
Hey Quicksilver-- you are correct, the finger paddles and anti-paddles were actually reviewed in a subsequent Swim Bag, in the Nov-Dec 2010 issue. We used that issue to review all the products that we could not fit in the earlier 2010 issues.
Unfortunately, we did not have a companion video for Nov-Dec. We actually did shoot some footage with these items, but the video didn't get finished. The day of shooting was really cold and we were all freezing, so the clips have a lot of teeth chattering and shivering. It has been on my list to dig it up and see if we can throw something together. I'll post here if that happens.
Thanks for the interest!
