What causes the most propulsion in backstroke--arms or kicks
Former Member
Some say in backstroke propulsion comes mostly from the arm movement, while others say kicking is the most important. What do you think? Is it possible to be fast (not the fastest) while being weak in one or the other?

Well, provided that most of backstroke these days is underwater SDK I would say legs and then arms once on top of the water.
