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

  • I wonder if it's caused by a timing issue with the kick? Watching Elaine's video it seems like she's waiting for her kick to finish before starting the pull. Maybe the problem is the timing of the kick is a little too late. I don't do this consciously, but thanks for pointing this out, Kirk! I seem to have a better feel for the stroke and better timing when I put on my Tyr Burners. I will think about my timing and getting a quicker catch when I hit the pool tomorrow... Hey, JB, see if you can get somebody to video you, ok? I would be curious to see if we actually do have the same stroke flaws.
