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.

  • Elaine, I struggle with all of my strokes, so take my comment with a grain of salt. But it looks like you are taking your second kick while your arms are still out front. Others may correct me, but I think you are supposed to time your second kick to coincide with the exit of your arms. One arm fly drills, and what I call “stone skipper “ ( underwater recovery) might help with timing the second kick.
