I was gonna make this point as well.

I am not nearly as good as Eric but I don't use my legs much at all when I swim. I swim for exercise and because I want to be able to do tris.

My kicking is mainly an attempt to keep those legs aligned with my body, if I don't kick somewhat they sink and create a drag.

I know my kick sucks. I firmly believe I kick from the knees.

Sucks. probably something I should work on.
