Shoulder Tap Drill 自由泳技巧-自由泳肩部水龙头技巧的练习 Shoulder Tap Drill Purpose
- This is an excellent drill to work on a positive spearing hand entry into the water
- It also helps undo a thumb first hand entry with the palm facing outwards
- It can help loosen off the shoulders and upper back and improve flexibility
Key Points
- Use fins, kick on your side
- As the top hand recovers, tap your shoulder
- Enter the water like a spear; middle finger first in front of the shoulder, palm facing down, think about trying to spear a little fish in front of you!
- Extend the arm before catching and pulling through and rotating onto the other side
- Breathe after every rotation, using the mantra:
Breathe–tap–spear in… Progression into full stroke
- Perform freestyle full stroke keeping the fins on immediately after the drill
- Focus on good body rotation and a spearing hand entry from a high angle
