Help on Flutter kick
I am trying to improve my flutter kick. I notice that I am slow and lame when I am just kicking with the kick board. I am much faster on my back! Does any one have suggestions on how to improve?

RE: Help on Flutter kick
ok here are some very useful tips. I hope you improve.
*Spin the feet to the inner part of the body
*Keep a little distance between them but not too much because keeping them far away will increase the water resistance.
*Also,the kick shouldn't come from the knees.Keep your legs tight and the move should come from the upper leg.Hope this makes difference Smile
