Re: Monofin Bend

Nice photo's Ben! Not discribing the technique and matrial.

In general I think you have overpowerd your fin big time.

Don't write of your kick, kick glide style, just adapt it, tune it a bit to fit your fin. You could stretch the time of your kick (kick slower).

On the otherhand I like the contious stroke, I think kick and glide is helpfull for those who have muscles that acidate quickly, cannot drain that acid fast enough and need recovery-time. I think it's more efficient to have a very stable speed with as little speedchanges as possible.

Appart from efficiency, I much rather see a beautifull contious stroke performes by a flexible person.

Love, Courage and Water,

Kars
