I have been learning almost a month (4 classes) + for freestyle.
I got to say, this is a very difficult swimming style to learn!
Using board with both hand, kicking, no problem.
Using board switching hand, no problem.
Using board, switching hand but when arm exists the water surface, bend before enter water, no problem.
Using board, swim one side and breath over long distance, no problem.
without board, swim 1 stroke then breath one side, both side also an do, no problem.
Then when combine two hands without board, like a real free style, holy shit, can never catch the trick.
My hands always lost synchronise and breathing always drink water.
I think I need a centre snorkel.
Usually where do you guy get one?
In Lelong found one selling RM80, Speedo shop one selling more than 100+, wonder will the cheaper one serves the purpose.
BTW, now I knew breast stroke kick water treading and eggbeater style water treading, now no need worry will die sinking.
