dolphin kicking on back, working on good whole body undulation getting hips up to surface and keeping small tight kicks. These kicks in the video are slightly larger than i would normally like though.
I would not say that the knees should be locked straight. Nor that I am doing a perfect dolphin in this video by far! I have yet to have an incredibly fast dolphin kick time.
I would recommend you checking out the videos on youtube with misty hyman and other great dolphin kickers. I will say that whiplike movements/undulation look to be very important as well as moving your body in the most streamlined path while creating propulsion!
Wow Im only looking at this just to see what I am missing but yes I really ought to get going swimming again it all still looks so fun but I had to quit because me were moving house! :(
did u wanna join a swim team? cause it is sooo hard i just joined and we just finished our first week and it is like brutal!!

Your knees are suppose to be locked straight and they have to do the same movement in order to move faster.

This is a stupid question, but I"m trying to learn this stroke. Are your knees suppose to be locked straight or loose?
