Have you seen Laure Manaudou´s kicking technique at the Olympic Games (400m freestyle)? That girl moves her legs perfectly and kicks a lot less than her slower competitors. I believe Laure´s technique is THE perfect kicking technique for any triathlete. Any comments on that?
From what I remember, she has a 2 beat kick, whereas most of us have a 6 beat. 2 beat is easier to do with a wetsuit, for sure, but a lot of people can’t balance correctly using a 2 beat. I agree it saves energy, and would work well for triathletes for those that could do it.
