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

  • Flyers: Suppose that I come into the wall a little long. Is it legal if I just hold my arms out front and take one extra fly kick into the wall? Is it legal if I go fully submerged during this final kick? Not taking the final arm stroke can save a lot of energy, but if I am rather long, it could waste a lot of time gliding into the wall. I've played with it in practice and the extra kick seems like a good strategy, if it is legal. Take the extra kick (always the better choice vs. taking the extra WAY TOO SHORT stroke and breaking your nose or teeth). You can take as many dolphin kicks as you like per stroke and stay legal, just once you start a stroke it has to complete its cycle up and over the water recovery.
