Guys I understand you saying his technique not right, but when doing IM i don't kick to much. I thought the whole point of the wetsuit is for bouyancy

Does this suit comes as a complete package?

Hi there guys if you happen to be in Cape Town at any point I would suggest getting in touch with Natalie Tissink (Raynards wife) she is an ex SA swimmer and has worked wonders on a number of beginner swimmers and special needs athletes we send to her for help. She gets you in the static pool and films you, edits the footage, sits down with you and gives you step by step coaching.

This allows you to train with purpose rather than slogging it out lap after lap. Not expensive neither. You can find her on the Velocity Sports Lab website. You can also get training plans from them. but be warned there is kicking involved :)

Spot on....wet suits are great at lifting the legs with very little effort required resulting in less effort and faster times. The problem is when you end up doing a swim that does not allow wetsuits.....

 

Here's a link (for Henley1) to have a look at, they have some good advice on how to improve your technique.
