The Butterfly Lane

Butterfly, beautiful to watch, difficult to train. We SDK off every wall. We're most likely to smack hands with each other and those beside us. Fly's fun to sprint but no fun when the piano comes down What did you do in practice today? the breastroke lane The Middle Distance Lane The Backstroke Lane The Butterfly Lane The SDK Lane The Taper Lane The Distance Lane The IM Lane The Sprint Free Lane The Pool Deck

  • When she is swimming fly, it looks as though she circles her arms back into the water, instead of trying to stretch for the wall each time. I have been told to "reach for the wall, like a finish" on each stroke. Her stroke appears to let the arms just fall back into the water, gracefully, but not to reach. When I "reach for the wall," it seems to introduce an undesirable pause into my stroke. I like the little rest, but I don't think my times do.
