Hi.
I have a problem with keeping a horizontal motion when Im finning.
I can control my buoyancy when not moving, I have good horizontal positioning (when I tuck my head, I can see behind me instead of looking at my knees). I have the commentary running thru my head Maintain long posture. Shoulder to knees straight. Bend at knees. Dont look up too much.
As soon as I start to kick, Im on my way up. Even if Im specifically trying to go down a bit, Im fighting the upward movement.
Im meeting with my DM next weekend so that he can check out my form, but Im hoping to get some ideas before I hit the water.
Is there an error in finning that most of us newbies tend to keep repeating?
