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?

Time to get back in shape for the upcoming S C season.
OK then here is a fun little fly kicking drill we do.
Put an elastic cord across the lanes beyond the backstroke flags on the close end and at the flags on the far end.
Kick out under water fly under the cord, when you get to the other end Kick under water, do a turn under water and kick out under the cord. Finish under first cord kicking under water to wall. 8 times 10-15 sec rest.
The person I have been training fly with for the past year has cut 1 second off her turn and I credit it to this drill directly.
Cheers and enjoy the air when you get it!
