Impossible fly!?!?!?!?

GBMbreastroker · 15-12-2004, 08:59 PM

Am i the only person in this world completely crap at fly? i have been swimming for as long as I can remember but have never been able to do anything that can be classed as fly. I'm 16 and do a 1:34.74 for 100 (only about 25 seconds slower than the slowest other boy in my club age group), and i would drown on a 200. I'm best at breast and some people say they conflict? i've also been told that as i am tall i have zero co-ordination and can't do it. The main problem is that my kick is soooooo slow and i stop my arms for about 1-2 secs at the start (arms in front you) of every stroke!!!! Does anyone have any advice or similar problems???
